Unemployment leads to depression

From an antiwork perspective…can you help understand? Studies such as this one suggest that men have an increased chance of depression when unemployed. Studies like this one show there is a correlation (but maybe depression causes lack of motivation which causes unemployment). I've also heard of this happening anecdotally. Are these bad studies? Is it the societal pressure to work that leads people to get depressed when unemployed (negative self-talk)?
