I thought I can count myself as a dependent? Since I take care of myself financially? Thats what I had marked down at my old job, but I dont know if it was "state" or "federal"???

Federal and State dependents are the same, whether or not you claim one on your pay, in the long run will not make a difference, the more dependents you have the less they take in taxes during the year, but you end up having to pay it anyway in April.

Your number of federal dependents is zero. State dependents is obviously also zero, since you don't have any.
Most states use the same definition of dependents as the federal government, but a few have minor differences when it comes to step-children, joint custody, etc. But you don't need to worry about those things.

Zero in both cases.
