Depression Commercials

I don’t understand those commercials on tv for depression medication. They make us out to be so much worse than we actually are. Then when we are at the point that they show on the commercials, you can’t watch them so they do you no good! When I’m at a 7 I can’t watch those so I change the channel or mute the tv until its over! Perhaps they are for the loved ones of the depressed, but when you are that depressed you usually don't listen to people very well. You tend to be self consuming. I know when my parents told me I was depressed again I got very upset! Basically what I’m saying is those commercials are stupid and useless!
