So some of my state is being garnished and it says the rest will be mailed on the 19th but I set up to get direct deposit so I’m wondering why it says it will be mailed

I live in Virginia and if they are garnishing a portion of your state taxes, they mail the remainder via check, along with a letter stating why they garnished your refund.  I'm not sure what state you are in, but it may be something similar.

Each state handles returns differently. It's best that you contact your state tax office for assistance with your question. Here's a link that lists the states, choose your state of residence and follow the steps to contact them via phone: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/refund-status/help/how-do-i-track-my-state-refund/01/25571#M52
