這些跡象表明你的抑鬱症越來越嚴重了大綱

1. You can't get out of bed or off the couch.

1. 你下不了牀，也下不了沙發。

How much time do you spend on the couch or in bed? You aren't necessarily tired but the prospect of getting up is just too daunting to face. So you stay horizontal all day, watching Netflix and feeling like a loser.

賴在沙發上或牀上的時間有多久？你也不是累，但一想到起牀就感覺前路漫漫。所以，你整天都平躺着看電視，感覺自己是個失敗者。

This habit is a significant indicator of depression. People who have been diagnosed with depression tell of the great lengths they go to stay out of bed - stripping the sheets, taking the mattress off of the box spring and leaning it against the wall, or locking the bedroom door. Whatever it takes to keep them out of bed and wallowing in their depression.

這個習慣是抑鬱症的重要跡象。抑鬱症的確診患者表示，他們需要花費很大的心力才能遠離牀--扯下牀單、將牀墊取下、倚靠在牆上，或是鎖上臥室門。只要能讓他們起牀、讓他們不沉浸於抑鬱之中，幹什麼都可以。

2. You have no interest in the things you love.

2. 你對喜愛的事情再無興趣。

Have you lost interest in doing the things that you have always loved? Does the idea of going to school or seeing friends or going out to dinner just seem like too much to bear? People who are depressed isolate themselves. The energy that it takes to get out of bed and interact with others is overwhelming. So they don't.

你是不是對以前喜愛的事情不再感興趣了？一想到去上學、見朋友或者出去吃晚飯就讓你無法承受？抑鬱的人喜歡隔離自己。起牀與他人交流實在是難以承受。所以他們不起牀、不與人交流。

Ironically, going out and doing the things that you love is a great way to alleviate depression, temporarily. Unfortunately, doing so can often seem too daunting to undertake and so people who are depressed just stay home.

諷刺的是，出門做一些愛做的事情是暫時緩解抑鬱的好方法。不幸的是，這麼做實在太難了，所以抑鬱者通常都呆在家裏。

3. You have overwhelming feelings of hopelessness and dread.

3. 你感到絕望和恐懼。

Do you spend much of your time running all sorts of negative thoughts through your head about how horrible your life is? What a loser you are and how no one will ever love you? Are you 100 percent confident that this will never change?

你是否總在想各種各樣的負面想法，想你的生活有多糟糕？你是一個失敗者，沒有人愛過你？你是否百分百的自信這一切永遠都不會改變？

People who are depressed believe all of the negative thoughts that run through their heads. Unfortunately, they also falsely believe that the way things are will always be this way!

抑鬱的人對頭腦中閃過的所有負面想法都深信不疑。不幸的是，他們總錯誤的以爲事情會一直如此！

The truth is that when one is depressed things can only seem hopeless because when one's mind is in such a bad place it's impossible to believe that the future will be any different. The good news is that once the depression is addressed, that feeling of hopelessness can disappear completely!

事實是，當一個人抑鬱的時候，事情都是無望的，因爲當你的大腦都在想着負面想法時，你很難相信未來會有所不同。好消息是，一旦得到治癒，這種無望感會徹底消失！
