γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and Serotonin (5-HT) are anxiety releiving neurotransmitters. Benzodiazepines and serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the primary treatments for anxiety disorders. Benzodiazepines are GABA agonists and SSRIs are 5-HT agonists - i.e. they promote the effects of these inhibitory neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly the limbic system.
