I've been battling this for 12 years. Even when I was non-depressed on prozac+zyprexa, I had no pleasure in life. No zest. No desires. No interest. But not depressed. Weird.
I believe they call it reward deficiency syndrome, which is a subset of depression or ADHD or schizophrenia. So much overlap. In any case, the general consensus in literature seems to point to the dopamine/norepinephrine circuits as being faulty in some way. And with some people maybe the opioid circuits. From all the complaints about emotional numbing from ssris, I think serotonin is the least likely to help with the symptoms.
