it sounds like what you're experiencing is depersonalization (something i've battled with for a while, and have just recently been diagnosed with).

i often used to experience it during the early stages of SSRI trials, which is the primary reason i would abandon them early. it's like they end up dulling all thoughts - good and bad - which can be really alienating. that was part of why i posted a thread asking what exactly an SSRI therapeutic effect should look like - does that emptiness go away, or do you just grow more comfortable with it, and eventually forget about it? i can't remember the last time i felt like myself.

it's sad your pdoc lacked empathy over your situation - you're obviously intelligent and in distress. i can't say i've had much more luck dealing with professionals.
