I am on medication for anxiety, not for depression.
When I was unmedicated, I had extreme anxiety, panic attacks, trouble eating, trouble sleeping (I was lucky if I got 6 hours in a night, and I pretty much never slept through the night), tension all the time...all the classic signs of anxiety along with a lack of energy and motivation, mostly because I wasn't sleeping.
When I started Celexa, I ate even less than I did previously, slept all the time and was irritable when awake.
Mood swings didn't really become a problem until recently...lately it's been getting worse. I have never been diagnosed with depression (though I was close when I first started going to T), or bipolar. Nobody has ever mentioned bipolar to me, so I've never considered it.
