I am not a psychiatrist and I cannot speak for them, but if I were a mental health professional and any client asked me a DNR form, I would be very concerned it was an indirect way to say they were planning a suicidal event of some kind. I would think it would violate their hippocratic oath to hand out such a form to a patient they are treating for depression which has a risk of suicide.
My prayers and thoughts are with you. Please reach out for more help.
