让我们坦诚以待吧，每个人都时不时会为某些事情感到焦虑，不同之处在于是什么让我们感到焦虑、我们的焦虑程度，以及我们如何应对焦虑。 当我们思想我们现在面对的或将来会或可能会面对的困难或具有挑战性的情况时，我们可能会感到焦虑，不断地想：“如果发生这事我该怎么办？如果发生那事我该怎么办？如果发生……我该怎么办？如果发生……我该怎么办？如果发生……我该怎么办？”我们害怕发生的事情没有止境。我们担心要应对当前或将来可能会发生的困难会让我们付出过高的代价，担心我们会无法应对，担心困难会像潮水般将我们淹没，让我们沉入完全无助的黑暗中，孤立无援。
Let us be honest, everybody is anxious about something one day or another (or even one moment or another), the difference is what makes us anxious, how anxious we are, and how we deal with our anxiety. We can become anxious when we think of the difficult or challenging situations that we face now or that we will or might face in the future. We keep thinking, “What if this happens? What if that happens? What if....What if....What if...?” The list does not end. We become worried that it will cost us too high a price to deal with the current or future/potential difficulties, that it might be too much for us to handle, that it will overwhelm us, like the ocean waves swallowing us up, making us no more, all alone and helpless in the depth of darkness.
“精神崩溃”（或“心理崩溃”）描述的是逐渐或突然出现的，并持续一段时期的强烈的心理痛苦。在此期间，你会暂时无法处理日常生活事务。 “精神崩溃”不是一个医学术语，也不是精神健康诊断，因为它描述的不是一个特定的情况。这个词没有统一的定义，但许多人常用它来描述强烈的痛苦症状和无法应对生活中的挑战。 精神崩溃的症状因人而异，深层的原因也可能会影响你所经历的症状类型。以下是精神崩溃的一些常见症状，能帮助你评估自己或所爱之人当前的经历：
A “nervous breakdown” (or “mental breakdown”) is a term used to describe a period of intense mental distress that occurs progressively or suddenly. During this period, you’re temporarily unable to function in your everyday life. “Nervous breakdown” is not a medical term or a mental health diagnosis, since it does not describe a specific condition. It doesn’t have one agreed-upon definition but is instead used by many people to describe intense symptoms of stress and an inability to cope with life’s challenges. The signs of a nervous breakdown vary from person to person. The underlying cause can also affect the types of symptoms you experience. Here are some common signs of a nervous breakdown that can help you evaluate what you or a loved one is experiencing:
当我们感到生活艰难、压力很大的时候，当我们感到对人失望、被压迫的时候，当我们感到日子很黑暗、生活苍白无色的时候，当我们感觉喜乐如此遥远，似乎已无踪迹可循的时候，我们能在哪里找到希望，并保有在主里的盼望呢？ 使徒保罗在罗马书 15:4 中给了我们一个很好的提醒：“从前经上所写的，都是为教训我们而写的，好使我们借着忍耐和圣经中的安慰得着盼望。”
When life feels very hard and pressures are high, when we feel let down and pressed down, when days feel dark and life pale, when joy feels far gone with no trace to hold on to, how do we find hope and remain hopeful in God? The Apostle Paul gives us a great reminder in Romans 15:4, where he says, "For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope."

When we are overwhelmed with anxiety, even experiencing panic attacks, no one and nothing releases it from the root, except the peace of Jesus Christ. 当我们被焦虑所淹没，甚至经历恐慌时，除了耶稣基督所赐的平安之外，没有任何人或事能将它从根源解除。
