And if you do how do you deal with it ! Im not talking about suicide
Or being sad for not getting something or not looking good..im talking about the state of no emotions, no caring, nothing makes you interested , you are not motivated to work or look good..the state of losing interest in life
I take antidepressants.

It's not that I was sad or unhappy. My mind just couldn't shut off the constant emotional thoughts. They took up every waking moment of my life, and the only relief I had was while sleeping.. using dreams to break down and understand the emotions I was feeling. It was like ADD with emotions.

Taking SSRIs helps reduce the amount of emotions flowing in my mind and let's me do what I need to during the day without zoning out all the time.

I take anti depressants too but when I stopped for a period of time I became very irritated I screamed and cursed for no reason at all..so I stopped taking it and became the way I was..non caring and lazy

Did you stop taking them without consulting a physician? If so, that's really bad.

You need to be weened off of SSRIs. You can really screw with your brain functionality if you don't.

3 days off of mine and I'm ready to claw the eyes out of everyone I come into contact with.

Idk if it could be the scorpio moon, or just my whole chart in general but lately I've been a nervous worrier. Like every day of my life I think of something scary like my own demise or the demise of loved ones. It's like a never ending mental though of paranoia that only stops when I sleep or get shit faced. Mental problems run in my family and my mother and grandmother both take anti depression pills but I'm afraid to. I just miss the days when I naturally could ride the waves of life without anxiety.

Moon trine saturn...yeah totally. Also, Saturn has been transiting your 7th where most of your planets are...must have been rough. One more planet to go in Sag but it should already be easier.

I'm not a Scorp sun but Scorp rising, I've been through some harsh depression and the way I deal with it is by analyzing it, searching for the source, and especially accepting that I'm feeling that way.

Once you've accepted it it's easier to let it fade away, you may feel relieved. Like there isn't something fighting against you anymore, which takes lots of energy and fighting it will eventually make the problem worse.
Do what you assume you need right now before you can take steps forward. In the end you can work your way into the way you want to live by taking small steps to becoming active, and watch out not to rush your way into what you want.
Wanting something but not paying attention to your needs when you're not 100% stable yet will take too much energy, and your mind and body will shut down simply because you're not ready to take those steps, which is the definition of depression, to me. If you skip too much steps you will fall.

I have horrible depression/anxiety/ptsd/panicattacks/derealization/dissociation/depersonalization you name it I got it! My main thing I've noticed is I always have to focus on something, something I like to do things I'm interested in, focus on family and going places. Learning about psychology or coping mechanisms. It's the best feeling to come out of a depression and knowing the very things that can possibly help you through it again. One thing I never run out of is motivation.. motivate yourself and thrive to het you and your happiness back.
