重性抑郁症是青少年常见的情感性精神障碍。患者不仅遭受严重的心理损害，而且遭受身体损害。本研究的目的是描述的身体投诉的女孩与重性抑郁症。73例符合DSM-IV标准的抑郁症患者与72例对照组进行比较。通过标准化和有效的德国问卷（吉森儿童和青少年身体不适量表）评估身体不适。患者报告的投诉明显更多，特别是疲惫和循环问题。身体问题更可能是抑郁症的后果，而不是原因。青少年抑郁症的治疗应考虑在抑郁发作期间应对身体功能障碍。
Major depression is a frequent affective disorder in young adolescents. Patients do not only suffer from severe psychological but also from physical impairments. Aim of the present study is a description of physical complaints in girls with major depression. Seventy-three patients fulfillingDSM-IVcriteria for major depression were compared to 72 controls. Physical complaints were assessed by a standardised and validated German questionnaire (Giessen Scale of Physical Complaints in Children and Adolescents). Patients reported significantly more complaints, in particular exhaustion and circulation problems. Physical problems are more likely to be a consequence rather than a cause of depression. Treatment of adolescents׳ depression should consider coping with body dysfunction during depressive episodes.
