I didn't get diagnosed for depression and anxiety until I was in the 2nd half of my 20's.  By then I had wasted at least 5 years of my life on drugs and alcohol binging as well as sleepless nights.  It's why I nipped it in the bud and had my son at 13 years see a professional.  He's still got anxiety issues but it's managed and he's in a much better place at 15 years old.
