Is the part in bold necessary?

The first experience was shared by Qirui. It was about how he managed to overcome his depression when he was first diagnosed with the illness in 2012.

Is the part in bold necessary?

Thanks.

Yes, the depression might have been the result of some other disease, which was first diagnosed in 2012. "With the illness" makes it clear the the illness was depression itself.
