If your noisy neighbours have ever left you feeling at the end of your tether, then you're not alone.

如果你的鄰居吵到讓你束手無(wú)策，那么你并不孤單。

For a study has found that living next to loud neighbours more than doubles your risk of mental illness and almost trebles the chances of suffering severe stress.

一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，經(jīng)常被附近住戶噪音轟炸的房主，患上抑郁癥的幾率會(huì)增加1倍，而遭受嚴(yán)重壓力的幾率則是3倍。

The findings come after the high-profile feud between rock legend Jimmy Page and pop icon neighbour Robbie Williams over Williams' plans to build a swimming pool in the basement of his London mansion.

在此研究結(jié)果公布之前，搖滾傳奇吉米·佩奇和鄰居、流行歌手羅比·威廉姆斯因后者打算在其倫敦住房地下室建游泳池，而引發(fā)了令人備受矚目的爭(zhēng)執(zhí)。

Page fears the vibrations caused by noisy excavations could irreversibly damage the Victorian interior of his own house on the street in Kensington.

佩奇擔(dān)心吵鬧的挖掘作業(yè)所引發(fā)的震動(dòng)，可能會(huì)不可逆地破壞其在肯辛頓同一條街的、維多利亞時(shí)代的房屋的內(nèi)部結(jié)構(gòu)。

The research suggests similar disputes could be triggering serious mental health problems for thousands of people.

研究顯示，類似的糾紛可能引發(fā)數(shù)千人出現(xiàn)嚴(yán)重的心理健康問(wèn)題。

The University of Southern Denmark, in Copenhagen, spent three years studying more than 7,000 residents, most of whom lived in high-rise flats, quizzing them on noise levels and their mental health status.

位于哥本哈根的南丹麥大學(xué)耗時(shí)3年，對(duì)7000名居民進(jìn)行了研究，其中大多數(shù)人住在高層公寓樓。研究人員詢問(wèn)了他們感受到的噪音水平以及他們的精神健康狀況。

Those who said they had noisy neighbours were nearly two-and-a-half times more likely to have depression and anxiety and almost three times as likely to score high stress levels.

那些表示鄰居很吵的人，得抑郁癥和焦慮癥的幾率是其他人的近2.5倍，而遭受嚴(yán)重壓力的幾率是其他人的近3倍。

Late night parties and loud music were cited as the most common bugbears.But noise from building works was also a major catalyst.

深夜聚會(huì)和大分貝的音樂(lè)是最常被提到的煩惱。但建筑工程噪音也是一個(gè)主要的影響因素。

The poll also found 40 per cent had suffered stress as a result of noise disputes and one in ten rows ended in violence.

調(diào)查還發(fā)現(xiàn)，40%的受訪者因?yàn)樵胍艏m紛而承受壓力，十分之一的沖突最終以暴力結(jié)束。

In a report on the findings, published in the European Journal of Public Health, researchers said: Noise exposure is a well-known risk factor for multiple adverse health effects. There is a strong relationship between noise annoyance and poor mental health and high levels of perceived stress.'

在發(fā)表在《歐洲公共衛(wèi)生》雜志的一份報(bào)告中，研究人員稱：“噪音是眾所周知的、造成多種不利健康影響的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)因素。噪音煩惱與心理健康不佳和嚴(yán)重壓力之間有很強(qiáng)烈的關(guān)聯(lián)。”
