depression

i am suffering from leg and back pain for the past 1 year.
it gets worse in the early morning. gets better with movement / activity.

1 year before, i was severe depression for  a continuous period of 3 months . has that got anything to do with this?

i took some antidepressants for 3 weeks (mirtazapine & clonazepam) , can that be the reason?

It's not uncommon for depression to increase any type of pain. Headaches are often associated with depression for an example. You can look at this link and it will give you more information. http://www.webmd.com/depression/physical-symptoms
It's truly amazing the effects that depression can have on the body.
You can also go to this page and ask them any question about the medications if you would like or more of a follow up to your question.  They are great about getting back to you. https://www.************/PharmacyDrugGuide
Chest pain can be a side effect of Mirazapine, but I haven't read anyone having it in the leg or back, but then again we all react different to medications. .
