If this person is 14 and from the USA, chances are it will be hard for him to find employment at that age. He/She could get a job that pays "under the table." Those people will hiring anyone.

If you're 14, I wouldn't take those freaking anti-depressants. When I was 14 I was put on paxil and that did not work out to well.

Unknown,

I don't recall how old you have to be, but you CAN get a work permit from your school to start working sooner. I THINK you have to be like 15-16, but that isn't THAT far away. Ask your school counselor.

I don't know what YOUR circumstance is, but suicide is probably not the answer.

I liked the movie short circuit, too.

Hey

I have been depressed numerous times and have found that medication helps me a whole lot. It is recommended that you take anti-depressants.

Talk to your mom about talking to your doctor about Efexxor

Effexor is wicked. That stuff didn't work for me and made stuff a lot worse. Celexa may work.
