I think I agree with you on this, the main character's deppression came from the expectations for him to be a man in a society where it is expected for men to be strong physically and emotionally.

With a traditional idea of what being a man means, that included repressing at least part of his emotions in a way that's unhealthy in long-term. In his job he ended up staying in a sort of comfort zone that was so looking at stability, but his dissatisfaction increased adding to his emotional problems.
You've said it all.
