I do not think that I would be happy living in a world whose only response to my depression was to try to make me more comfortable existing with it. I think it would make a lot of difference to my experience, and make my experience less terrible, but it wouldn't make my mindframe when I am in a depressive state not suggest that the only way to get rid of the miserable outlook on the world is to seek death.
I wouldn't want to sacrifice the parts of me that make me good at troubleshooting and proofreading. Noticing mistakes; noticing things that could and will go terribly wrong, those things are absolutely linked to my tendency towards depression. But I do not believe that any amount of accommodation in the world would make my natural tendency towards a lack of mood resilience actually bearable for me when I am going through it.
