Why do antidepressants make depressed people commit suicide?

If I'm understanding this correctly, people that are already depressed take antidepressants but not until they take them do they usually go as far as suicide? What makes them actually go *that* far? 

Do they simply mix the meds or accidentally overdose? Is it something in the meds that stimulates the "depressed stuff" even more until its unbearable? Do they get like schizophrenia?..

Mental health worker here.  Sometimes suicide happens when people begin antidepressants because they actually feel an upsurge of energy, which allows them to act on suicidal thoughts and feelings which might have been lingering prior to taking the meds.  Some depressed folks are too despondent and hopeless to actually act on their suicidal thoughts and the tiny boost that the meds give them can push them into action.
