Dependency on any medication is bad in my opinion and it doesn't surprise me that there would be implications like that with drugs for depression.
If you're sad, try doing something to channel it. I draw, I sing, I play my bass guitar, I write poetry. Sometimes these don't help of course, you can end up just being even more unhappy, but that is just the nature of the state you are in.
It is worse when people don't appreciate the state you are in and think it is as simple as being unhappy, or think depression is just when you are unhappy. It's much more serious than that and can have some terrible implications.
