While I do think there is a link between SSRI use and decreased testosterone - there is also the possibility that decreased testosterone preceeded SSRI use to some extent. Decreased testosterone can cause depression and is sometimes associated with other depression comorbidities.
For instance, one study suggested that disturbing sleep will decease testosterone somewhat. Just like it can mess up blood sugar
