Allopregnanolone is a positive allosteric modulator of gaba-a responses. I.e. it enhances the effects of gaba on gaba-a receptors. If you believe that the gaba system is overactive you may which to try DHEA, which does the opposite ( negative allosteric modulator) of the gaba-a response.
I'm not sure if you can get DHEA as a supplement in the US? It used to be available in Canada, but not anymore.
