what is depression?什么是抑郁癥?
depression is a mood disorder that causes you to feel sad or hopeless for an extended period of time.more than just a bout of the blues or temporary feelings of grief or low energy,depression can have a significant impact on your enjoyment of life,your work,your health,and the people you care about.
抑郁是在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)持續(xù)的一種精神絮亂,它讓人感覺(jué)悲傷,對(duì)生活失去希望。不止發(fā)作一次的悲傷心情,或沒(méi)有精力,抑郁對(duì)人們的生活,工作,健康,甚至對(duì)周?chē)娜藗兌紩?huì)產(chǎn)生很大的影響。
depression affects people differently.some feel down for extended periods of time;for others the feelings of depression come and go.if you have short episodes of mild depression,you may be able to continue to work and take care of daily activities.however,if you do not seek some form of treatment for your depression,you are at risk for getting more depressed or becoming physically ill.in severe cases,depression can cause people to become incapable of communicating,unable to do routine activities,or suicidal.in these cases,it is essential to seek medical attention.
抑郁對(duì)人們的影響是不同的。有些人經(jīng)常情緒失落,而有些人只是偶爾有這種情緒。如果你偶爾有這輕微的抑郁,可能你能繼續(xù)工作,應(yīng)付日常工作。但,如果不對(duì)你的抑郁尋求一些治療,你可能就會(huì)變得更加抑郁,或生病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。嚴(yán)重抑郁會(huì)導(dǎo)致人無(wú)法正常交流,不能進(jìn)行日常的活動(dòng),甚至自殺。在這種情況下,尋求藥物治療就非常重要。
people with depression may be reluctant to seek help because they feel that it is a sign of personal weakness or a character flaw or that they should be able to pull out of it on their own.we now know that depression,like other medical conditions,has a chemical and biological basis.treatment for depression is safe and usually effective even for severely depressed people.
患抑郁的人通常認(rèn)為它是個(gè)人性格上的弱點(diǎn),或是性格上的缺陷,他們認(rèn)為能夠通過(guò)自身的努力消除,從而他們不愿意尋求幫助。我們知道,抑郁和其它的疾病一樣,都有生物和化學(xué)基礎(chǔ)。治療是安全的,對(duì)于患有嚴(yán)重抑郁的人,它通常是非常有效的。
if you think you may have depression,take a short quiz to evaluate your symptoms:
如果你認(rèn)為你可能有抑郁的話(huà),填寫(xiě)一份簡(jiǎn)短的測(cè)試問(wèn)卷來(lái)分析你的癥狀。
