I have just worked out my recent spiral into depression coincides with my starting a low carb diet (I want to lose 35lbs to be a bridesmaid for my sister). I've done a little bit of research on the net and have found lots of conflicting reports but a significant number of them definitively say a diet low in carbs does cause depression, particularly if you are prone to it. This last two weeks has seen me descend into a self harming, tearful, snotty mess when before I was actually feeling fairly positive.

Does anyone have any thoughts, experience or opinions on this?
