Hi ~ When we're depressed, these emotions just "leave." Everything seems a dull gray -- you can find no joy in anything. A bright, sunny day would make most people feel good -- but when i was in the throes of depression, I longed for a gray, rainy day so I'd have an excuse to feel bad.  Things that we used to love doing, or just things we used to love, i.e. music, reading, have no importance to us anymore. Nothing seems important -- it's all we can do to get thru the day!
It sounds to me like you need to talk with your doctor and perhaps get on an antidepressant -- or else get into therapy. Or both!! Depression is a serious disease, and you shouldn't just let it go thinking that it will get better on it's own. It just might NOT. MANY of us have had to take medications and/or get therapy in order to recover.
God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
