The psychopathology of functional somatic syndromes PDF
By:Peter Manu
Published on 2004 by Routledge
This book examines the link between mental illness and physical syndromes that lack organic disease explanations, including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, premenstrual dysphoria, irritable bowel, and Gulf War illness. It examines the best research work of the past 20 years to determine the association between psychopathology and functional illness, the biological gradient between somatic and psychological symptoms, and the manifestations of dysfunctional coping. It challenges recent conceptualizations of functional somatic syndromes as mental disorders connected to affective spectrum disorder, chronic somatizing, serotonin deficiency, physical inactivity, and/or abnormal illness behavior. The New England Journal of Medicine called this book |thorough| and Brett Plyler of Doody's Electronic Journal gave the book four stars and said it is |AN EXCELLENT CONTRIBUTION TO THE FIELD OF MEDICINE. This book reviews all of the relevant literature and neurobiological research for these illnesses to give the reader an in-depth understanding of each. The author draws a distinction between these illnesses and other major psychiatric disorders, and challenges the concept of these problems being primarily a result of neurochemical dysfunction. This in turn prepares you to understand how an individual's personality issues, coping skills, and life situations can result in one of the functional somatic syndromes. The author specifically addresses the importance of abnormal illness behavior, sexual victimization, and maladaptive coping in the formation of these illnesses.|
