I read a long article by an MD suggesting that the blunting was the mode of operation, since it kills the guilt and rumination that creates depression.
I don't know though, there's something besides blunting going on for me. When really really depressed, my brain just feels dry and dead and horribly empty, and when the SSRIs kick in, it feels somehow full and fed and satisfied. Like a drink of water when you've been dehydrated. Maybe it's different for OCD though.
