For every article you can find that claims Gaba does not cross the brain barrier, I can find one that says it does.
There are even books written by alternative doctors that use it regularly on patients. I don't think they would be doing that, or writing books on it, if they weren't seeing some helpfulness.
All I know is that whenever I took Gaba, I definitely felt it. I had no doubt it got into my brain.
I did not however find it to be good monotherapy. It needs partners. Things that qualify would be glycine, magnesium, 5htp, tryptophan, niacinamide, valerian root, passionflower.
