I don't think a BZD can directly antagonize the mechanisms of antidepressants. However, they can induce a separate depression on their own that can produce a net effect of feeling worse. Clonazepam seems to be the worst offender.
I'm not sure why BZDs are said to be depressants except that they suppress or inhibit excitatory neurons. That doesn't equate to mental depression, though. Same thing with alcohol. I think it is a bit misleading.
