> I don't know a whole lot on the clinical workings of depression. Please explain what proper GABA regulation is?

What I was referring to was your desire to get home for that calming drink that is now controlling you.

The best expression I've seen about this was the message I Googled into finding this board, at
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/20010605/msgs/65815.html, where in 2001 "Elizabeth" says:

"Alcohol is a lame and toxic substitute for benzos -- if you have adequate doses of benzos, you don't *need* to drink."

The Jan 2004 discovery about alcoholics having a gene that causes GABA misregulation essentially proves the above.
