I have a bad case of GAD, a lifelong, relentless disorder. I've tried everything on your list too. The only thing that had any type of mild effect on me is fish oil. However, for that to work, I have to take it in really high doses, like 10 to 15 grams. I'm pretty much resigned to the pharmaceutical approach, or to suffering and complaining about my suffering to everyone I meet, a/la the unnamed main character in Fydor Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground.
"I am a sick man. I am a spiteful man. I am an unattractive man. I believe my liver is diseased. However, I know nothing at all about my disease, and do not know for certain what ails me."
And on and on.
I'm great at parties!
