Hello Tepiaca,
Xanax (alprazolam)has a unique antidepressant action and it shouldn't be xanax which is causing depression. Valium can worsen pre-existing depression and sometimes itself causes depression. So in order to achieve a desirable effect you will have to increase the intake of Xanax and avoid valium completely. Talk with your doc. Xanax in moderate doses will cover up all those symptoms of depression. It is my experience.
