I've been using Taurine for a couple of weeks now.
It's helping me with anxiety, and agitation. No side effects so far. I am a much calmer/mellower person with it.
Supposedly it is a "cell membrane stabilizer", and has anxiolytic, mood stabilizing, anticonvulsant and pro-cardiac effects.
Andrew Stoll (who "discovered/popularized" Omega-3 Fatty Acids for depression & bipolar), has been doing research on Taurine and is close to publishing his results. His quote, "it works really well for bipolar disorder", from article here: http://www.psychologytoday.com/htdocs/prod/PTOArticle/pto-20031120-000001.asp
