【摘要】 抑郁症是全球性主要精神卫生问题，是危害全人类的常见病、多发病，给个人、家庭、社会带来巨大损失。中西医对本病存在理论共识：将“情志”即心理因素放在该病发生、治疗、转归的相当重要地位；认同此病的核心在“郁”；主要临床表现上描述基本一致；承认该病的长期性、复杂性、难治性等。中西医结合治疗抑郁症，从单方到辨证施治以及中西药合用，从传统主观性逐步向客观性方面转化，从注重回顾性研究到前瞻性、双盲对照性的科研设计等，都有了长足的进展。在强调“宽怀解释”的前提下，利用中医疏肝理气、益肾健脾、宁心安神，调理气血，平衡阴阳，并结合西医的改善微循环，抗抑郁药物来调节神经代谢及内分泌系统的功能，确实走出了一条中西医结合治疗抑郁症的新路。
