A holiday may be exactly what's needed to re-charge your batteries, but returning to work often leaves us feeling flat.

度假可能正好是你需要充电的时光，但回到工作状态我们总觉得无精打采。

而且有事实证明，女性比男性更易患节后综合征。

A new survey has found that 53 per cent of women suffer after all the holiday hype comes to an end, with a shocking 29 per cent revealing that they feel 'deflated¹' and 'demotivated.'

一项新的调查发现53%的女性假期狂欢结束后，高达29%的人觉得自己有“灰心丧气”和“低落”的感受。

据欧洲汽车租车预订公司对1000多个客户的调查发现，与超过50%的女性相比，只有40%的男性在回家的时候感到纠结。

It's so extreme that almost a quarter of women report feeling the post-holiday slump³ before they've even turning on their computer.

有点极端的是，据报告近四分之一的女性会有节后综合征，甚至在打开电脑之前就有这种现象。

同时，十分之一的女性承认自己会比平常多喝几杯酒，或通过吃甜食的方式让自己振作起来。

A spokesperson for Auto Europe said: 'Holidays are a vital way to recharge the batteries and reflect on your life as well as your career.

But it's only natural that, as we all return to work, many will suffer from post-holiday blues.

但在我们回到工作状态时，许多人自然都会患节后综合征。

However, if you'd rather be anywhere but back at work after a holiday, it might be the wake-up call you need to find a new role.

不过，度假回来后，如果你宁愿去任何一个地方都不想返回工作状态的话，这可能是唤醒你需要找到职场新角色的一个信号。”

Judi James, TV behaviour expert and author of More Time Less Stress, said that the answer to post-holiday blues is to take even more time off when you return.

电视行为专家朱迪·詹姆斯写了《长时间工作压力小》这篇文章，他说，缓解节后综合征的办法只有在你回到工作岗位后，花点时间去恢复。

She said: 'These [holiday blues] can start mid-way through the holiday if you have real problems with your job or the pressures of your job, but for most people they kick in a few hours after you have walked into your business premises⁷.

她说：“如果你在工作方面或在工作压力方面真有问题的话，这种(假日忧伤)在度假的过程中就会开始有了，但对于大多数人来说，在走入上班地点几个小时之后就开始有这种假日忧伤的感觉了。

Try taking up to a week off at the end of your trip away to merge⁸ some of the happy experiences like relaxing and dining and dancing with your normal life. Take days out to take trips near where you live, stick to the fresh-food healthy diet you probably enjoyed on holiday and keep up with any new exercise routines, and keep discussing or even planning that dream business abroad.

在旅行游玩结束尝试着用一周的时间去体验一些快乐的经历，如放松、用餐、跳舞这些平常性的生活娱乐方式。在你住的附近抽出一天时间出去旅行一下，继续坚持你假期时新鲜健康食物的饮食习惯，开始锻炼身体的新运动计划，继续讨论开拓海外业务的计划，甚至要对海外业务的计划抱有美好的梦想。

When you go back to work, plan some weekend outings to keep the feeling of doing something different going and even if bigger dreams start to get a reality, check it might be better to keep discussing them than to shrug⁹ them off altogether.

在你回到工作状态时，做一些周末郊游的计划，去保持一点做一些新鲜事的感觉，即使大梦想要实现，也许去实现它比继续讨论会更好，而继续放在嘴上说说比对梦想耸耸肩的态度要好很多。
