Its totally possible that the lunesta withdrawl is involved. If dropping effexor were going to cause depression you think it would have hit by now.
There is a gabaergic model of depression whereby certain depression is alleviated with drugs that enhance gabaergic function. SSRI's indirectly increase gaba function as do tranquilizers.
Anything is possible. The best way to find out is to get some more lunesta and to a rechallenge with this agent to see if the depression goes away.
