Holiday Blues
For most of us, the purpose of the holidays is to bring peace, love, and goodwill towards all. Yet, for many, the holiday season often means stress, fatigue, pressure, disappointment and loneliness.
对我们大多数人来说，度假的目的是为获得清静、关爱和友善，但是对很多人来说，假日却常常意味着紧张、疲倦、压力、失望和孤寂。 These feelings, often known as the "holiday blues," may be even more prevalent this year, due to the emotional turmoil of the past few months, not to mention the unsteady economy. |
且不说变化不定的经济，过去几个月来情感上的波折就可能使这种被称为"假日忧伤"的情感在今年更为普遍。 |
专家说，甚至购物、布置房间、深夜晚会、做饭、计划和家庭团聚这种人们习以为常的事，都可能成为假日紧张的因素。 |
此外，季节情感紊乱症或称SAD的心理现象也可能导致一种与冬季昼短夜长有关的特殊类型的抑郁。 |
