Answering my own question...
Xanax has been show to have anti-depressant effects.
"These data provide further support for the hypothesis that the GABA/benzodiazepine/Cl complex is directly implicated in the action of antidepressants and that systems other than the GABA system are involved in the antidepressant and anxiolytic effects of alprazolam."
