It's important to note that the anti-natalist position isn't the same thing as pro suicide.
It isn't even a suggested solution to the problem.
This also isn't a depression issue. You can be happy (define this however you want) and hold the position that it is preferable to not exist.
Once life starts however, it is probably a better option to let it run it's course. The anti-natalist position is just that never existing doesn't have any downsides.
For example, how were your first 13.7 billion years?
