越来越多的人正在面临一种困境：在和他人沟通交流时，会本能地感到疲劳与厌烦，这被称为“社交疲劳”。面对这种新的心理困局，我们应该怎么做呢？本文作者给出了几项应对策略。
Most people may have a much better idea of how tiring socializing can be after they stopped spending time with friends for at least some period of time over the past two-and-a-half years, due to the global pandemic. This social exhaustion(疲劳) presents us with a challenge: How do we keep up with our friends, when just the thought of being “on” is tiring? Here are some strategies you can follow.
在过去两年半的时间里，大多数人可能对社交活动有多累人有更好的了解，由于全球大流行。这种社会疲惫给我们带来了一个挑战: 当一想到 “继续” 就很累的时候，我们如何跟上我们的朋友？这里有一些你可以遵循的策略。
Set—and communicate—boundaries
设置和通信边界
There’s no rule saying that socializing has to be an all-day (or even all-evening) affair. Before you start making plans, tell your friend that you’d love to hang out, but need to limit it to a one-hour lunch, or a particular event followed by one drink afterward, for example. Though you don’t owe anyone an explanation as to why you’re not able to spend more time together, you certainly can be honest with your friend and tell them that socializing wipes you out. They may even feel the same way and be grateful that you said something.
没有规定说社交必须是一整天的事情。在你开始做计划之前，告诉你的朋友你很想出去玩，但是需要限制在一个小时的午餐时间，或者一个特定的活动之后再喝一杯，例如。虽然你不欠任何人解释为什么你不能花更多的时间在一起，但你当然可以对你的朋友诚实，告诉他们社交会让你筋疲力尽。他们甚至可能也有同样的感觉，并感激你说了些什么。

If making plans with someone else feels overwhelming, it may help to officially make some time for yourself (for instance, put it on the calendar). This way you know that you’ll have some quiet time to recover, instead of having to move on to the next tiring task (even if it’s one you enjoy).
如果和别人一起制定计划感觉势不可挡，正式为自己腾出一些时间可能会有所帮助。这样你就知道你会有一些安静的时间来恢复，而不是继续下一个累人的任务。
