Hi in my experience stress plays a large part in depression and you might find that it does impact on your illness though I know it is not the main issue. I think what your boss is trying to do is to find out how to help you at work, which shows a good boss.
Management these days are aware that stress is a big factor in work performance whether you have depression or not.
Unfortunately they are not aware usually of how to help with depression and it is up to you to tell him how he can help and what you need, if anything.
Good luck with it. x
