Not even close, give your head a shake.
Hockey is fun. Watching it is fun. Being a fan of a team is fun.
If at any point you're not having fun (or even worse, you feel like losses are triggering feelings of depression) then it's time to re-examine your relationship with hockey. It's not healthy.
I understand a lot of people use sports and fandom as an emotional outlet, which I think is great, but it's not good if it has a negative impact beyond the game. Enjoy hockey for hockey, not the boxscore.
Everyone should do themselves a favour and remind themselves once in a while that it's just a game. Having love or passion for the game is not synonymous with depression. I love hockey, but individual losses are disappointing for about 5 minutes, then you move on.
