Search for micronutrient deficiencies + a psychiatric condition on PubMed and you'll get many results.
Off the top of my head zinc, magnesium, various forms of B-vitamins and selenium imbalances are seen in different disorders. Zinc deficiency in depression, zinc overabundance in schizophrenia. Both zinc and magnesium seem to have roles in NMDA neurotransmission. B-vitamins play a role in neurotransmitter production.
