Alcohol is actually a depressant of course, so it's basically going to counteract any antidepressants and possibly cause even more bad side effects. And of course drinking to cover up depresssion is kind of like putting out a fire with gasoline, right?

But sure, a lot of us drank to try and escape a whole host of problems - pscyhological, social and physical. Glad to hear you have 30 days sober, that will definitely help in moving forward on your depression issues. Are you still seeing a counselor/therapist and/or taking the anti-depressants?
