Friendships: Enrich your life and improve your health
MENTAL HEALTH
April 17, 2007

Friendships are good for your health. During hardships, they are a source of comfort and strength. Learn how to find and nurture friendships and how to be a good friend.
It's the shoulder to lean on. The good advice. The unspoken comfort. The good times and shared laughter. Friendships offer all these benefits, and lots more. They boost your self-esteem, provide companionship and even help protect your health and mental well-being.
友谊有利于身体健康。逆境中，友谊能带来安慰和勇气。学习建立并维系友谊，学会成为一个好朋友。
友谊是可以依靠的肩膀，是良师，是无法言语的慰藉，它可以带来美好的时刻以及欢声笑语，它可以提高自尊心，提供伙伴，甚至有利于身心健康。
It's not always easy to form the close bonds of friendships, though. It may be especially hard to develop and keep up friendships when your life is hectic - work demands, family time, school. But friendships are important for both men and women. Take a minute to think about the friends in your life. Do you have close friends? Would you like to develop more friendships?
Learn why friendships are good for you and how you can bring more friends into your life.
然而，建立深厚的友谊并非易事，尤其当工作需要、家庭生活以及学校等因素使得生活忙乱时，想要建立并维系友谊变得很难。花一分钟时间来想想你生活之中的朋友。你有亲密的朋友吗？你想建立更多的友谊吗？
学习了解为什么友谊对你有帮助，如何让你的生活中拥有更多的朋友。
Why friendships are so important
Good friends are good for your health. Talking with a friend over a cup of coffee, going to a ballgame together, chatting while your kids check out the playground, or hitting the links for a round of golf can offer simple but powerful ways to connect. The connections of friendship increase your sense of belonging, purpose and self-worth, promoting positive mental health.
为什么友谊如此重要
好的朋友对你的健康有帮助。与朋友一起喝杯咖啡、聊聊天，一起参加球赛，当孩子们在操场上玩耍时和朋友一起闲聊，或者一起打一场高尔夫球，都是和朋友联络的简单有效方式。联络友情可以增加你的归属感、决心和自我价值，可以积极推动心理健康。

Friendships can help you weather the trauma of a divorce, a job loss or the death of a loved one. Your friends may encourage you to change unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as excessive drinking. Or they may urge you to visit your doctor when you feel overly anxious, sad or hopeless. Friends can also share in your good times - a new baby, a new job, a new house.
当因为离婚而受伤害、失业或失去深爱的人，友谊可以帮助你，朋友会鼓励你改变不健康的生活习惯，比如酗酒等；当你过度焦虑、忧伤、绝望时，朋友会陪你看医生；朋友也可以同你一起分享快乐的时光--孩子出生、找到新工作、搬进新家。
They can celebrate the good times with you or offer comfort during the bad. Just knowing that friends are there for you can help you avoid unhealthy reactions to stressful situations.
高兴时，朋友会同你一起庆祝，忧伤时，朋友会安慰你。朋友可以让你避免不良反应，从压力中释放出来。
Keep friendships nurturing and healthy
Developing and maintaining healthy friendships involves give and take. Sometimes you're the one giving support to your friends, and other times you're on the receiving end. Letting friends know you care about them and appreciate them will help ensure that their support remains strong when times are rough. It's as important for you to be a good friend as it is to surround yourself with good friends.
维系健康的友谊
发展并维持健康的友谊包括给予和获得。有些时候，你是给予朋友帮助的一方，有些时候，你又会是从朋友那里获得帮助的一方。让朋友们知道你在乎他们、欣赏他们能确保你遇到困难时得到朋友强有力的帮助。如果想要身边有很多好朋友，成为一个好朋友对你很重要。
Friendships pay dividends
友谊会有回报
Friendships provide a sense of belonging and comfort. Friendships act as a buffer against life's hardships and help you develop resilience. They offer compassion and acceptance. And friendships can make you feel important and needed by giving you a chance to offer someone else comfort and companionship, too.
Relationships change as you age, but it's never too late to build new friendships or reconnect with old friends. The investment in your friends will pay off in better health and a brighter outlook for years to come.
