Adele has opened up about her battle with postnatal depression after the birth of her son, Angelo.
阿黛尔近日谈起在生下儿子安吉洛后与产后抑郁症做斗争的一段经历。
The singer told Vanity Fair magazine that she felt, at the time, like she had made "the worst decision" of her life.
这位歌手告诉《名利场》杂志,当时她感觉就像做出了一生中“最糟糕的决定”。
The 28-year old goes on to say that she "loves her son more than anything" but admits she really struggled adjusting to motherhood.
这位28岁的歌手接着说,她“爱儿子胜过一切”,但承认的确努力去适应为人母的角色。
"I was obsessed1 with my child. I felt very inadequate," she says.
她说:“我非常迷恋我的儿子,感觉自己不够格。”
Angelo is now four and Adele's only child with partner Simon Konecki.
安吉洛现在4岁了,是阿黛尔与男友西蒙.考内奇唯一的孩子。
She goes on to say that taking an afternoon a week to herself improved the situation.
她接着说,每周留半天时间给自己改善了产后抑郁。
The interview comes as Adele reaches the end of her 10-month tour to mark her album 25. She admits she still feels uncomfortable spending time away from her son.
阿黛尔接受采访时,她为期10个月的纪念专辑《25》的巡演已经接近尾声。她坦承与儿子分离仍让她感到不安。
"I'm enjoying touring, but at times I feel guilty because I'm doing this massive tour, and even though my son is with me all the time, on certain nights I can't put him to bed.
“我很享受巡演,但有时感到内疚,因为有这么多巡演,尽管儿子一直跟着我,但有些晚上我还是不能陪他睡觉。”
"I never feel guilty when I'm not working," she adds.
她补充说:“我不工作时从不感到内疚。”
"You're constantly trying to make up for stuff when you're a mum. I don't mind, because of the love I feel for him."
“当你有了孩子,你会一直试着去做出补偿。我不介意,因为我爱我的孩子。”
The singer also spoke2 of how her stage fright is so bad that she may never tour again.
阿黛尔还谈到自己非常怯场,也许以后再不会举办巡演了。
"I'd still like to make records, but I'd be fine if I never heard [the applause] again. I'm on tour simply to see everyone who's been so supportive."
“我还是会喜欢出唱片,但最好不要再听到这些欢呼声了。我举办巡演只是为了见见如此支持我的歌迷们。”
Looking ahead to new material Adele reveals that she thinks she "will never write songs as good as the ones that are on 21".
展望新的创作,阿黛尔表示“再也写不出《21》里面那样优秀的歌曲”。
She says the success of tracks like Someone Like You were largely down to drinking two bottles of wine a night and chain-smoking on a regular basis.
她说能创作出Someone Like You那样优秀的作品主要是因为当时不断地抽烟,一晚上喝掉两瓶酒。
"A drunk tongue is an honest one," she said. "I'm not as indulgent as I was then, and I don't have time to fall apart like I did then."
她说:“酒后吐真言。现在我不那么放纵了,也没有时间那样放纵。”
