Hey:-) I've been there. We are here for you k?
You have us all to talk to, even though we can't be with you physically. I have felt this way you speak of too-many, many, many times. Please be patient. (I know easier said than done)
I've learned that I can't stop my family, especially my mom, from worrying-but if they are worried they obviously love you and try to see it that way-they may just not understand. I have also experienced many many times "seeing people around me leading productive lives-going to work, socializing, laughing, and I felt completely detached from it all". It passed and so shall this with you-that's why I said be patient it takes a lot but I know you can do it.
Talk to your doc or a doc asap and/or go to the ER. I want you to feel better:-)

==================================================================================================I can't take an Maoi now that I have an SSRI in my system. I don't know what's happening to me. It gets worse as the day goes on. I just feel like I'm in a bad dream. I can't leave my apartment. I can't eat, and I can't make the simplest decisions. My body aches and I mumble whenever I talk. I'm sorry for complaining; I know you've all been through this, and I don't have anyone to talk to who understands what this feels like. My family is just worried sick about me, and I hate to impose this on them, but I can't stop them from worrying. My fiancee and I just called off our engagement today; I've been seeingher for 4 years and engaged for 10 months, and I was so numb talking to her, it's like I didn't even care. I see people around me leading productive lives-going to work, socializing, laughing, and I feel completely detached from it all. I don't know if this recurring depression is part of a mood disorder that's progressively getting worse, or if it's my mind/body's reaction to all the medication changes I go through every month.
