Doesn't really answer your questions, but I'd point out that it's possible that we only hear about these suicides precisely _because_ they are from professions that tend to produce high-profile celebrities. I'd counter your apparent correlation with the fact that apparently suicide among doctors is extremely high:

Is's a common convention in newspaper obituaries and articles to not mention cause of death as suicide, except in newsworthy situations.

Covering suicides in general were somewhat taboo unless they involved someone noteworthy:

That doesn't counter it, though.

It could be true that "the wiring in the brain that makes people creative" increases the risk of depression while also being true that there are other things that increase it too.

Your comment also implies that whatever that wiring is, doctors don't have it, and I don't know if that is an assumption we should make.

The suicide rate in doctors is not higher than the general population.

Suicide is common. There are lots of doctors. Some doctors die by suicide.
