周日焦虑！如何抵抗周日综合症？

In a world of 24/7 connectivity, there's almost always an option to check in at work -- and that means nine-to-five, five-days-a-week jobs are often a relic of the past. It can be easy to allow the stresses of workweek to seep into your precious time off and tempting to use Sunday as a chance to get a jumpstart on the week. But, as much as you can, it's important to spend time unplugged, even if you can only manage a few hours.
在当今这个全天候无休止运转的世界，工作显然是不可或缺的。这就意味着一周五天、朝九晚五的工作一直是过去循环的结果。因此，工作日的压力自然会延伸到休息时间，甚至造成周日演变成一周的开始。但只要可以，你总能切断源头——哪怕只是几个小时的时间。

Disconnecting on the weekends can allow you the time you need to recharge your batteries after a stressful week, says Joanie Ruge, senior vice president at the career site Monster.com, which conducted the Sunday Night Blues survey. It might seem counterintuitive, but taking some time off will allow you to be even more productive when you get back to the grind.
乔安娜·鲁格是本次进行“周日综合症”的职场网站Monster.com的高级副总裁，她认为，周末抛开工作能确保在辛苦工作一周后给自己充电。这貌似有悖常理，但好好休息确实能保证你在接下来的工作中更有效率。

4.Schedule something to look forward to.
合理安排玩乐。

"We shouldn't save all of our fun times for the weekend," Meyers says. Strategically setting up little things to look forward to throughout the upcoming week, and even the following weekend, can help to soothe some of your Sunday-evening dread.
“人们不该把所有玩乐都安排在周末。”迈尔斯说。有策略地把细小快乐穿插在整个星期，包括周末在内，这样可以缓解周末晚上的抑郁情绪。

These activities don't need to be elaborate (think: watching a TV show, making a phone date with a friend or going out to dinner). "Any of these are small enough to be feasible for workweek activities but large enough to make you feel excited or hopeful," Meyers says. Yup, DVR-ing DWTS totally counts.
“这类活动不必很复杂，可以是看电视剧、跟朋友煲电话粥或外出吃饭，这些琐事不仅方便穿插在工作日，还能让你心情愉悦有盼头。”迈尔斯说。没错，看录像也可以算在内。

5.Set yourself up for success.
做好成功的准备。

Sometimes Sunday night is too late to think about the Sunday Night Blues. Next week, try setting aside some time on Friday afternoon to prepare for Monday, getting things organized so you have less to feel stressed about over the weekend. "Take some time to plan, even if that means you don't dash for the door at 5 p.m. on a Friday," Ruge says. "It actually will help you have a much better and more enjoyable weekend."
有时周日晚上太晚，都无暇去想“周日综合症”。下个星期，可以尝试在周五下午就做好下周一的准备，使一切井井有条，这样你就不会为下周感到头大了。鲁格建议说：“哪怕你周五下午5:00不那么急切，也该花点时间做计划，这样周末才会过得更加舒心愉悦。”
