The fact that alcohol is a "depressant" only refers to the fact that it is a central nervous system "depressant", decreasing function and acting as an inhibitor to neurotransmitter activity, giving the opposite effect of a "stimulant", basically. The fact that it is a "depressant" doesn't mean taking it makes you "depressed", in much the same way "antidepressants" work also. They are only names describing their effects on the CNS.
