DeSalvo said the symptoms of depression included a severe sleep disturbance, a significant increase in weight loss or gain, significant change in level of energy or motivation and a marked decline in performance at school or work.
Frank DeSalvo, director of counseling and psychological services, said 1,024 clients were seen in the service's department last year. He said 6,902 therapy sessions ranging from 50 to 90 minutes were provided in that time.
About 20 percent of the U.S. population may at some time experience depression serious enough to seek professional help, Keeler said.
Concentration lapses are especially prevalent in college students afflicted with depression, Keeler said.
"Up until now, we have not had a lot of good information about how the brain works," Keeler said. "Understanding the brain is the last great frontier of medical science."
While a person in a state of good mental health will be able to manage daily stress without severe difficulties, depressed people must learn how to deal with regular emotions and experiences, Keeler said.
"They feel so bad that they just simply cannot function," she said.

It voted to approve annexation of 26.23 acres south of 31st Street, west of Iowa Street and north of 33rd Street. The land is now the site of several single-family homes, and the owners wish to sell their land to Target because of increased commercial development.
The City Commission gave Target Inc. a vote of confidence last night during its weekly meeting.

The rezoning vote included a request for the planning staff to recommend restrictions that the remaining land Target did not occupy be zoned with light commercial or multi-family development. Mayor John Nalbandian said he thought that evidence had proved Nieder Acres, the land in question, was unsuitable for single-family residences. The area is surrounded by developments like Kmart and Wal-Mart.
The commission also voted to rezone 28.5 acres, which included the 26.23 annexed acres, from agricultural and single-family residence to planned commercial development. Part of the annexed land would be
used by Target to build a store. A final vote will be made by the commission after Target's preliminary site plan is approved by the Lawrence/Douglas County Planning Commission.
Nalbandian said land not designated for Target should be developed in such a way that it would buffer the

CommissionerJo Andersen said she would prefer to defer the rezoning vote. Commissioners should be more specific on the zoning they wanted, she said.
"It will be too hard to back up from we've done," she said.

"It has been such a long, drawn-out affair, I think we're all a little numb," she said. "I consider it encouraging that they recognize that we don't work as a residential area."
