What Is Somatization Disorder?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Our bodies are incredibly complex. At any one given moment, countless pieces of information are being sent to and from our brains. These help us to know what is going on around us, as well as helping us to move and react. With so much information in circulation, it is inevitable that something will go wrong sometimes.
If these messages are confused then it can mean the brain receives the wrong information. This can result in conditions like somatization disorder that can cause the patient to feel things that are not even there. This can be very painful and extremely distressing, and it can also be very hard to treat.
