I’m not the person I once was. I no longer feel joy. I no longer feel for people close to me. I hate it. I once thought the meds made me able to deal now I can only think they are making everything worse. I feel like I need to get off of them before they kill me. I need my mind back I feel like it’s been taken from me. I walk around and life just seems surreal to me now. I rarely laugh or smile I fake a lot of positive interactions with people so that I don’t have to address it.

Meds may or may not be the cause of the emotional void in your case, but in my case, they were. Some people’s biology just doesn’t quite mesh with medications. I understand completely what you’re describing. Every pharmaceutical grade medication I’ve tried for depression and anxiety has only made the symptoms much worse, as well as left me feeling “flat” at times, like I’ve been lobotomized and am incapable of feeling. Talk to your doctor about this. It is a real problem.
I agree I was on the meds and now it is like there is nothing there. Now I’m just ashamed. I was right all along, suicide is the right thing for me.
