There are a number of things that can cause this. Depression and stress are definitely major things that can cause you to miss your period, but so can dieting or exercising too much and a number of other things.
It's probably best to talk to a doctor to try to find out for sure.

I don't think that there is nothing wrong with you because I did not have my next period for 2 months 5 weeks and 5 days. I was worried, but I did not tell anyone because I did not want my mom to think I was pregnant because I wasn't.

You could have hormonal imbalance caused by the depression medicine. Have you lost or gained a lot of weight? Have you been stressed?
It probably wouldn't hurt to see a doctor, just in case.

It could be a side affect of the meds. There are lots of other things, besides pregnancy, that will through your schedule off-tracks. Sudden weight gain/loss, stress, excersise, drugs..
You'd be suprised how many women have a 'weird cycle'.. Maybe you could be one of them? Ask your doctor.

It's a possible that one of the side affects listed with your script could also effect you period. I would talk to the doctor about it, but it's largly possible.

if your depressed that in itself can cause you not to have a period.
check the wording on the pills - sometimes it can mean the same thing but worded in a different way
