摘要： 背景　抑郁症患者的躯体化症状发生率为65.0%~98.2%，其严重影响了患者的生活质量。了解患者的经历和体验可以更好地为其提供能满足个体需要的、有针对性的医疗服务，提高患者的生活质量，但目前国内外缺乏对抑郁症患者躯体化症状的体验和认识研究。目的　深入了解抑郁症患者对于自身躯体化症状的体验和认识。方法　采用描述性质性研究方法，于2017年10—12月采用目的抽样法从上海市某精神专科医院选取符合纳入标准的15例单相抑郁症患者进行半结构式访谈，并采用MAXQDA 10软件，对资料进行整理、编码、分类、归纳、提炼主题。结果　提炼出2大主题5个亚主题，包括：（1）患者的躯体症状描述，主要涉及神经肌肉系统、循环呼吸系统、胃肠道系统以及部分无明显系统归类症状；除了明确定位的躯体化症状，患者还存在难以言说或无法准确定位的躯体不适感，躯体不适体验常较客观检查结果严重；（2）患者对躯体化症状的认识，包括对躯体化症状认识不足以及无法将躯体化症状与精神障碍建立联系。结论　抑郁症患者的躯体化症状类型多样，轻重各异，给患者带来不良影响，降低患者的生存质量。因此，临床医护人员应加强对抑郁症患者躯体化症状的关注和重视。
