Go to your doctor so that causes can be ruled out. Some antidepressants can cause itch but so can liver problems and allergies. You need to find out what is causing this in your case.

I went to the hospital and all they did was give me a shot for my itchiness and that’s it

If that doesn't cure it, ask for a blood test.

They gave me steroid medication and it’s helped me a lot still itchy but not as horrible as I was non stop

Hi Stephanie - sometimes a change of soap powder or some soap or cosmetics can cause the itch. My family had a washing machine repair, and the cold water hadn't be turned on so the washing powder solution was too strong and relative came out in a rash. Itchiness under the skin can be due to the liver, responding. If you check your medication on drugs.com UK or USA you can find the side effects . If you find itchiness or other symptoms connected to liver

then may be you should stop the drug and ask for another one. Some people are drug sensitive and have other intolerances to some of the ingredients in capsules, such as dye, or titanium . It's worth going back to the doctor. I have diabetes type 2 and if my blood sugar is too high I get the under the skin itching. I take an antihistamine every day, and if it gets worse I take a cocodamol which helps the itch. I have to revise my diet to lower sugar to stop the itch.
