That sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. As a life long vet of the Depression Campaigns, i can relate. I don't have any magic words that i can drop that'll magically make things better, but i wish i did. If you don't have someone to talk to, you can bend my ear.

I tried that once. It made my emotions so dead, even the depression was missed.

Had to go trough several drugs before hitting the jackpot, although I'm also on other meds.

I know this is anecdotal, but when I was first diagnosed with depression they put me on medicine that made me devoid of feelings like your explanation. Well fast forward a few years and a new doctor. Turns out I'm bipolar, and being on the right medication has been SO helpful and such a night and day difference.
