South Beach and Low GI
I started the South Beach Diet 5 days ago and I feel like absolute crap. I am so sick of meats, cheeses, and veggies. I feel nauseous all the time and I have to force myself to eat (so I'm getting under 1000 calories a day and I know thats not good). I feel that if I switch over to a low GI diet, with a few more carbs, that I'd feel a lot better. Should I stick the rest of phase one out(a week and a half left)?

I've done South Beach, and it's great short-term, especially Phase 1. I like to go on the first phase as a sort of cleanse, but I find that the diet on the whole isn't that sustainable.
Stick it out for the rest of the week and the crankiness should go away. Then you can add in some complex carbs (still stay away from refined sugars) and fruits. You'll probably feel a lot better and be more likely to stick with it.
