24. I've been on Effexor for years.
It took a while to find the right drug. A lot of the antidepressants didn't work.
Be sure you get a thorough physical, including thyroid tests, done first. There are lots of physical causes of depression.

On the alcohol: it is an antidepressant, but a lot of people (especially men) use it to self-medicate. It doesn't work very well.
