For the last six years, John Bokop and his wife have headed to Florida for at least two weeks during the winter.

"(We just want) to get away from the snow we've been having and the cold weather," he said.
“（我们想）远离那些我们在寒冷天气下遇到的大雪。”他说道。

While shorter days and less sunlight can cause cabin fever for some, a portion of the population experiences sadder moods and lower energy levels with the arrival of winter.
在短日照的日子和缺乏阳光照射会使一些人得幽闭症，随着冬季的到来一部分人伤感并且缺乏活力。

The condition is known as seasonal affective disorder, and Mark Richman, assistant director for community mental health at the Delaware Department of Health and Human Services, said it's a type of depression that's triggered by the change in seasons.
这就是我们熟知的季节性情感混乱，在特拉华州健康和公共事业局负责社区心理健康的副主管，马克.理查德说，这就是典型的受季节变化引发的伤感。

"It's ... called winter depression, and it's often linked to changes in light," he said.
“这个……被称为冬季伤感，经常随着日照变化。”他说道。

According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, between 4% and 6% of people in the United States suffer from SAD. Another 10% to 20% may experience a mild form of the condition in late fall or early winter.Symptoms include a loss of energy, loss of interest in favorite activities, anxiety and changes in sleep and appetite, Richman said.
根据美国家庭医生学会所提供的资料，大约有4%到6%的美国人得过这种伤感。另外10%到20%的可能在初冬或者冬末有过轻度的消沉。症状包括缺乏活力，对喜爱的运动不感兴趣，焦虑，在睡眠和欲望上变化。理查德说道。

But the condition is treatable, according to Dr. Michael Hurd, a psychotherapist in Ocean View."Take some trips to sunnier and warmer places in winter, plan activities to keep the weeks busy and full, and begin or intensify exercise," he said. "Try to change (your) attitude and look at the good sides to winter and shorter days."
但是这种病况是可以治疗的，麦克.赫德博士，海典湾（台译）的心理学家解释了这一情况。“在冬天到那些阳光明媚，温暖的地方去旅游，计划好运动保证在这几周里繁忙充实，加强锻炼。”他说，“试着改变你对冬日，缺少白昼的成见，对此要看到积极地一面。”

Gina Hall, owner of Energy Gym in Fenwick Island, said visiting a fitness facility can improve someone's mental state. Members make friends, feel good about doing something positive for themselves and get out of the house."There's a positive energy and attitude in the gym," she said.
吉娜.霍尔，是坐落于芬威克岛上能量健身房的业主说，遇到一台适宜的健身器材能提升自身心理水平。会员彼此结交朋友，从明确自身的事情中获得良好感觉，避免家里蹲。“在健身房有积极的活力和态度。”她说道。

Those who believe they are affected by SAD should visit a medical professional, Richman said. Ultimately, getting outside and enjoying the sunshine could be the best medicine.
那些相信自己患上冬季忧虑的人们应该拜访医学专业人士，理查德说，最终的结果是外出活动享受阳光才是最好的药物。

"Everyone gets a little stir-crazy (in the winter)," he said. "That's a normal part of living."
“（在冬天）每个人可以精神失常一下，”他说。“这是生活中平凡的一部分。”
