If you are taking natural supplements, is that what you want? 5-htp works for serotonin, but I don't know if you can take it with sam-e. Rhodiola rosea is something I take, and have been taking with a lot of things (my doc thinks I am low on dopamine) and Gaba should be helped by l-theanine I think (I think it also works on dopamine, but am not sure how - there's a book you can find at the library which talks about a lot of nutritional supplements and conventional medications: How to use herbs, nutrients, & yoga in mental health care). It talks about medications for bipolar, depression, anxiety, add/adhd, cognitive impairment and memory, and one of my favorites - women problems (also men) which includes libido, things like that, and also has a suggestion of things that you can do or take for conventional medication side effects (for me, weight gain! libido) I like it so far, and my doc just suggested maca, not just for libido, but for mood! I don't know if it works on dopamine or what, but he thinks I am low in dopamine because of how well I do on adderall. Hope that helps! Cydnie
