【摘要】 以空虚感为特征性症状的“空心病”被认为是一种特发于现代大学生的精神障碍。从精神医学角度看，空虚感是全人类普遍且长期存在的，不总是与精神病理学直接相关。空虚感与许多其他非特异性症状一样，它既不是进行明确诊断的必要理由，也不是充分理由，可见于边缘性人格障碍、抑郁障碍、非自杀性自伤、自杀及其他多种精神障碍。空虚感的作用并非完全是负面的。虽然会有人通过颓废的放纵的生活方式来填补空虚，人们也可以通过积极的生活赋予人生意义而摆脱空虚感的困扰。更多还原

【Abstract】 The "empty-heartedness disease" characterized by a sense of emptiness is considered as a mental disorder specific to modern college students. From a psychiatric point of view, the feeling of emptiness is universal and long-standing among all people, and is not always directly related to psychopathology. Like many other non-specific symptoms, it is neither a necessary nor sufficient reason for making a definitive diagnosis. It may occur in borderline personality disorder, depression, nonsuicidal self-injury, suicide, and a variety of other psychiatric disorders. The influence of emptiness is not completely negative. Though the feelings of emptiness can be filled by people’s decadent and indulgent lifestyle, people can also overcome the feelings of emptiness by giving meaning to their lives through a positive lifestyle.更多还原
