    Yes, I have. I would make sure you're getting enough calories and enough carbohydrates. When I was deficient in both of these, respectively, I would start to feel down.

    Hmm...I have the opposite reaction. I cut carbs out of my diet (except for non-starchy vegetables) for the most part and a lot of my depression went away immediately.

    Agreed on the calorie front.

    Thanks newmeadow, that does put things into perspetive. hasta_la_vista, i felt great on low carbs for the first several weeks. Maybe it's the Halloween candy that's doing it to me :)
