This happened to me as well.  I was put on an AD and then later diagnosed with hashimoto's thyroiditis, which may have been causing the depression all along.  We'll see when I've finally gotten off the AD.  It could be that I have both, but it is common to have depression with thyroid issues, especially with the fatigue anyway.
