Gaba is undoubably a biggie in social phobia, along with most anxiety disorders, I believe. What is interesting though is that dopamine dysfunction is often quite clear in social phobics but not in other anxiety disorders. Dopamine makes you positive, high self esttem, and talkative. Also low DA often leads to going over and over silly little things that you may have done that really arent a big deal(usually not even a deal) Anyway I see dopamine and gaba to be the biggest players in my problem.
