To expand on what Sly stated immediately above. If extensive tests by specialists point to a chemical imbalance then attack the imbalance with more chemicals. Make this the last step.
If depression is caused by external events, job, partner, death, etc ... then deal with it head-on or ride it out. If the problem is never addressed how will it be overcome. If stopping use causes depression will most ever be able to stop?
Also don't hide from those that really do care and want to help.
Anti-depressants are like "Smart Blur" in Photoshop.
They just make everything appear glossy, the zits are still there!
