Unless that's something you choose to do (and depression isn't a choice) then it's only crippling yourself and that someone who cares about from feeling good in the long run by putting that burden of blame on yourself. Don't get hung up on it and forgive yourself like it was an unintentional mistake, the same way you would forgive someone else's mistakes. I don't think you want to shut down, and it might even feel nightmarish in concept. Really I would think you just want to not negatively affect others, and that's something that can be done by anyone without resorting to shutting down.
