I highly recommend The Diet Cure by Julia Ross. The Diet Cure book/program was very helpful to me when I first started low-carbing years ago. Ross recommends *non drug* solutions to help correct imbalances which lead to particular food cravings and mood swings. Instead, she recommends nutritional supplements, especially amino acids. Her work is well-researched, and the book includes an extensive list of scientific references.

Ross has another book, called The Mood Cure. This one might be more relevant to your current concern . I haven't read the book yet, but the website has a lot of good information, including an interactive questionnaire which you might find helpful. I've just reserved a copy from my local library, so hopefully will be reading it in the next few days .

For the record, Ross's diet recommendation is "a high-protein, healthy-fat, veggie-rich diet". Looks like low-carb to me
