当询问一批自由职业者，他们从工作里获得的最大的好处是什么？往往会有人这么回应：“你可以穿着你的睡衣工作。”呆在自己舒适、安全的家中，不用在外赔笑，不用故作坚强。 当然，没有哪一种情况是完美的。自由职业者的工作也会带来一系列可能会使抑郁症恶化的因素。比如：家庭与工作生活的混淆，自立门户随之而来的重大的责任。 对于患有抑郁症的人来说，自我雇佣最危险的一方面可能在于被孤立的潜在可能性。缺少同事意味着没有人会注意到你的情绪的低落，往往就是当你无须再在人前装作勇敢坚强的时候，就是你会走向另一条道路的时候，逐渐迈入消极，而不被任何人察觉。 Ask a group of freelancers what the biggest perk of their job is, and someone will invariably say "working in your pyjamas". For me, not having to get suited and booted every day isn't just a perk, it's a necessity, because some days I just don't have the energy. I have depression, and that is why the decision to work for myself, in the safety and comfort of my own home, was one of the best I have ever made. |
