I haven't heard anything about depression, but I have been using ibuprofen for
cramps and various headaches I haven't noticed any depression (not that my lack
of symptoms implies there are none), and I would much rather use ibuprofen than
the Tylenol-3 (with codiene) I was using for cramps.  Tylenol-3 does have the
side effect of making me somewhat sleepy.  Both wipe out my cramps which are
only bad the first morning.
