压力事件对抑郁症的影响已经被充分证明，但相反的关系也很重要。我检查了14名单相抑郁症女性1年内的事件发生率，并将其与人口统计学匹配的双相情感障碍（n= 11），慢性疾病（n= 13）或无疾病或障碍（n= 22）女性组进行了比较。访谈评估的生活事件，严重程度和独立的发生证实了这一假设，即单极女性比正常女性暴露于更多的压力，有显着更多的人际事件压力比所有其他人，往往有更多的依赖性事件比其他人。这意味着单极女性的症状，行为，特征和社会背景产生了压力条件，主要是人际关系，这有可能导致症状和压力的循环，从而产生慢性或间歇性抑郁症。
The effect of stressful events on depression has been amply demonstrated, but the opposite relation is also important. I examined event occurrence over 1 year in 14 women with unipolar depression who were compared with demographically matched groups of women with bipolar disorder (n= 11), chronic medical illness (n= 13), or no illness or disorder (n= 22). Interview assessments of life events, severity, and independence of occurrence confirmed the hypothesis that unipolar women were exposed to more stress than the normal women, had significantly more interpersonal event stress than all others, and tended to have more dependent events than the others. The implication is that unipolar women by their symptoms, behaviors, characteristics, and social context generate stressful conditions, primarily interpersonal, that have the potential for contributing to the cycle of symptoms and stress that create chronic or intermittent depression.
