Depression is as common as the common cold.
Like the common cold, depression can strike anyone at any time. But, unlike the common cold, depression can be cured.
We all experience depression over the course of a lifetime, and one fourth of us experience a depression that warrants treatment. Only a third of us who can benefit from professional help seek it. For those who don't, the symptoms may fade away but are likely to recur. The sooner depression is detected and treated, the more effective the results.
As part of National Mental Illness Awareness Week, The Menninger Clinic will present a free public Depression Education Forum that features

Debate panelists selected
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — After a selection process that some journalists boycott, a bipartisan commission announced yesterday that it had picked four reporters to participate in Sunday's presidential debate among George Bush, Bill Clinton and Ross Perot.
Representatives of the Commission on Presidential Debates said Jim Lehrer of PBS "MacNeil-Lehrer Newsworth" will moderate the debate, the first of three between the presidential contenders. The panelists will be Ann Compton of ABC News, John Mashek of *The Boston Globe* and Sander Vanocur, a former NBC and ABC reporter now working free-lance.
Several large news organizations, including NBC, CBS, The Associated Press, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, had announced that they would not allow their employees to participate in the debates, primarily because the Bush and Clinton campaigns had a role in selecting the questioners.
The bipartisan commission selected four well-respected journalists, all with experience in presidential debates.
televised presidential in a battle between Richard Nixon and John Kennedy in 1960. He later moderated the televised debate in 1964, Bush and Gerald Ferrero in 1984.
Vanocur was a panelist in the first
Lehrer was the moderator of the first presidential debate between Bush and Michael Dukakis in 1988. Mashek, then with The Atlanta Constitution, was among the panelists. Compton was a panelist in the second and final presidential debate that year.
Lehrer has been outspoken in defense of participating in the debates. He said after his selection yesterday that he considered in noble work to help the voters decide who the next president will be.
"I'm comfortable with it," he said. "I think my actions speak for themselves."
Lehrer wrote an opinion-editorial piece Tuesday in The Washington Post in which he encouraged journalists to "answer the call."
Vanocur said he would not discuss the controversy over the debate panel but said that he was pleased and honored to participate.
Those who opposed the selection process, including David Broder and Tim Russert of NBC, have maintained that journalists surrendered their independence by taking part in a debate in which the campaigns picked the questioners.
The Clinton campaign has said it preferred to leave the selection to the bipartisan commission, but the Bush campaign insisted on a role. Perot's forces had no role because of his late entry into the race.
The second presidential debate, scheduled Oct. 15 in Richmond, Va., will feature questions from an audience. In the final clash, set for Oct. 19 in East Lansing, Mich., questioning will be split between a single moderator and a panel of reporters.
A single moderator will question Vice President Dan Quayle, Tennessee Sen. Al Gore and retired Vice Adm. James Stockdale in the vicepresidential debate, set for Oct. 13 in Atlanta.
A little advice to candidates
WASHINGTON — Some advice from debate coaches to the candidates:
Get a good night's sleep. George Bush, and wait 15 seconds before plunging into your answers.
Ross Perot, tell the folks why you're running and convince them you aren't just in it for your ego.
This unsilicited guidance comes from some of the country's premier college and high school debate coaches, members of an Associated Press panel who will watch the forthcoming campaign debates and rate the candidates' performances. The first debate is Sunday night.
The coaches had the most advice for Clinton, the candidate with the most to lose because he leads in the polls.
Abandon your tendency to be pedantic and statistical, they said; above all, as Lanny Nagelin, who trains high school debaters in San Antonio, put it, "don't come across as glib or slick."
Clinton, another coach suggested, has to decide whether he wants to play the role of the good of Southern governor or the sharp-as-a-tack Rhodes scholar.
"Bush's mouth speaks before his mind has processed the implications of what he's saying; he has a lot of trouble
with complete sentences," said Melissa Wade of Emory University in Atlanta.
"Bush has to be rested," she said. "He has to stick with his prepared remarks as much as possible. And he needs to make himself spend 15 seconds thinking before he gives an answer. By giving himself a little time, he looks thoughtful."
If the debates carry the most risk for Clinton, they also give him a chance to bury stubborn character questions and to look as presidential as the president, the coaches said.
Bush has most to gain, but he can't do it just by attacking Clinton, these experts said; he has to persuade the country that he has some good ideas for a second term.
The coaches weren't in complete agreement, however. James Copeland, 10 times named debate coach of the year by the National Forensics League, thought Bush should go on the offensive on taxes, painting Clinton and Perot at every chance as inevitable tax increases.
But James Unger of American University said it was more important for Bush to salvage his own reputation with a new positive message linked to change that must demonstrate that things will be better in a second term. Attacking Clinton won't do that, Unger said.
