Depression is a clinical chemical state; people respond to it in many different ways; some respond by chasing dopamine highs.
Many socially active people are actually depressed, and the activity is their way of attempting to deal with it.
Many introverted people aren’t depressed at all, and enjoy their own company more than that of others.
