What's the cons of taking anti depressions?

I took them before when I was little and as I gotten to my teenager years (I'm 16 going on 17) and my attitude is still bad. I get into arguments, I don't know how to respect them, I'm depressed, social anxiety and have no confendice. So my doctor and parents suggest I should get back on the pills but I heard many things that they effect weight gain (I'm trying to lose 10-15 pounds), shorten your life, and some other things and I don't want these to happen to me but I do t want to be a a$$hole and depressed all my life! When I took those pills while young I was happy, codefendant, and got good grades at school now I'm skipping, not caring about a lot of things, and losing my smarts by bad grammar and not making sense. I need help and suggestings and if there's bad things about taking these pills.
