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