Depression（抑郁）
，其中各个字母代表的含义分别为：D
depression mood 抑郁心境；E
energy decreased 疲乏或精力不足；P
psychomotor changes 精神运动性改变；R
reduced concentration in decision-making 做决定时注意力下降；E
esteem decreased, excessive guilt 自尊心下降和过度自责；S
sleep changes 睡眠情况改变；S
suicidal ideation / behavior 自杀意念/行为；I
interest decreased 兴趣减低；O
（这个是凑数的）N
nutritional and weight change 食欲和体重改变。什么意思？我们来挨个看下：
D
抑郁心境
Depression mood.此处既可以是抑郁心境，又可以是易激惹（在儿童和青少年中更容易出现）。
因一些患者存在述情障碍（alexthymia，a = 不能，lex = 使用词汇，thymia = 心境），在正确描述自己的情绪状态上有明显困难，所以需要医生多次重复询问：悲伤、低落、郁闷、忧愁、沮丧、兴趣下降。多换用这些词汇，可以使患者的阳性诊断增加三倍。
E
精力不足或疲乏
Energy decreased.对于精力不足或疲乏，可以通过下面两个问题进行评估：
1.
过去 2 个月以来，你觉得身体比以前或平时，更加疲劳或精力不足吗？2.
（如果问题 1 是否定）即使运动量很小，比如逛街，你的身体也比想象中更加疲劳？P
精神运动性改变
Psychomotor changes.精神运动性改变即精神运动性激越和迟滞，包括 4 组症状，抑郁症患者的 4 组症状可能以任何组合形式出现。
精神性激越：
易怒、内心紧张感，这是激越的内心体验。运动性激越：
踱步、紧张、双手出汗，这是激越的运动表现。精神性迟滞：
感觉缓慢、思维迟缓、情感反应慢、无思考能力，这是精神活动缓慢，或情感信息加工缓慢的内在体验。运动性迟滞：
明显的活动减少、走路缓慢、反应速度慢、发呆或凝视。由于这 4 组症状通常是混合存在的，所以不要去寻找单纯的精神性改变或运动性改变。应先逐个询问 4 组症状中的每一个症状，然后再判断患者是精神性的还是运动性的，是激越还是迟滞。
R
做决定时注意力下降
Reduced concentration in decision-making.下面的 3 个问题，可以评估患者的注意力：
1.
你能坐着看完一场电影吗？能记住故事的主要情节吗？2.
你阅读报纸的时候，能从文字的开头读到结尾吗？能理解文字的意思吗？3.
休息片刻之后，你能继续原来的话题吗？还是忘掉了刚才的交谈？儿童注意力下降的表现可能为成绩直线下降；而老年人注意力下降的表现可能为记忆困难，需要与痴呆进行鉴别。
E
低自尊，过度自罪感
Esteem decreased, excessive guilt.除了自杀观念，自责和自罪感是抑郁症患者最不愉快和讨厌的症状，85% 的患者都可能存在。即使没有处于抑郁发作期，患者依然可以存在持续性的自罪感；当抑郁发作时，这些感受可能会更加强烈。
评估自责自罪的 3 个问题：
1.
在过去 5 周内，与以往相比，你更加沮丧或自罪吗？2.
在过去 5 周内，你感觉自己很沮丧吗？3.
在过去 5 周内，你有没有对自己失去信心？一些患者认为，由于目前的状态，不能履行自己的角色职责，让亲人、朋友或同事失望了，这无疑会增加他们的心理负担。
此外，需要注意，严重抑郁症患者，其自罪感可以达到妄想的程度，以至于患者认为要为与他无关的事情负责。
S
睡眠过多或过少
Sleep changes.大多数抑郁症的患者，不管是睡多了还是睡少了，都会精神萎靡。
针对失眠的抑郁症患者，可以做如下询问，以判断失眠的类型：
起始失眠
（入睡困难）：在过去几年里，当你觉得情绪低落的时候，你入睡有困难吗？中段失眠
（睡眠维持困难或频繁觉醒）：在过去几年里，你能够睡熟吗？你在夜间会经常醒来吗？终末失眠
（早醒，醒后无法继续入睡）：在过去的几年里，你有没有发现醒来比预期早？或者是觉得自己应该多睡一会儿，但又睡不着？S
自杀意念或行为
Suicidal ideation / behavior.若确定患者存在自杀观念或行为，应询问以下 4 个问题：
1.
你想要结束自己的生命有多长时间了？你是每天都在想自杀吗，还是每周想几次？——评估患者是否经常考虑自杀问题。2.
你有做过自杀计划吗？若没有自杀成功，还有其他自杀计划吗？——询问自杀计划的细节、和自杀的替代计划。3.
你自杀的计划实施得怎么样了？——评估进程。4.
当自杀的意愿越来越强的时候，抵制这些想法有难度吗？——询问患者如何发现这种想法以及患者的行动意图。I
兴趣减少或快感缺乏
Interest decreased.患者并未进行大量的体力活动，但对于体力活动要求很少的任务，依然觉得需要付出很大的劲儿才能完成。
N
食欲和体重变化
Nutritional and weight change.食欲变化指食欲的减退或增强，有的患者还可能偏爱一些特定的食物，如甜食。对于儿童这一特殊人群，体重变化可以是指体重不能达到预期的标准。
需要特别一提的是，根据 DSM-5 的诊断标准，抑郁症（重性抑郁障碍）的诊断
必须满足上述 9 项中的 5 项
，且D（抑郁心境）和 I（兴趣减少或快感缺乏）这两项中必须具备一项
；症状持续的时间必须要达到 2 周以上
；并且需要排除其他原因所致的精神障碍。另外需要强调的是：
抑郁症是可防可治的。
愿大家能早期识别身边抑郁症患者，并能让他们得到正规的治疗。
