Psychosomatic symptom is a term used to narrate a physical symptom in the body that arises from a actually psychological or emotional cause. Some common psychosomatic symptoms comprehend headaches, sleep problems, extreme fatigue, stomach problems as well as a conglomeration of unexplained pains in the body. Weight gain, weight loss and an inability to lose weight can also be psychologically related for a divergency of reasons as well. Of course, if you should experience any of these symptoms or issues, it’ s always necessary to check with a medical doctor first in harmony to rule out any medically related causes. But what if you’ ve empirical a doctor, or a few doctors and maybe even gone through different medical exams but are lonely with results that indicate you are healthy physically and cipher is entirely misconstrued? Then what?
This is when it’ s time to scrutinize the possibility of having a psychosomatic symptom which wittily means you may have emotional stressors and / or suppressed emotions that are not being special and so to disburse this, your body is pilotage the emotions into different areas of the body. Garbo emotions like anger, fault, distress, loss, sharpness, confusion, anxiety, trauma, and any other negative warmth you can think of get under contract and trapped in the body when they are not given a way to be released whether it be through speaking, crying, physical exercise, writing, etc. When we stuff our emotions down day after day for weeks, months or sometimes age, these emotions become toxic to the body and the body then sends a signal for help by creating a physical symptom to get your attention.
One theory of body syndromes that I came to learn about from my training at the Hypnosis Motivation Institute was that depending on the specific area of the body position the symptom is occurring, that this itself gives information about the nature and emotional cause of the symptom. The founder of the direct and developer of this theory, John Kappas, PhD, reserved five different body syndromes which included the crying syndrome, the responsibility syndrome, the sexual frustration or authority syndrome, the fight or drawing near syndrome and the scuttle syndrome.
The crying syndrome, for sampling, includes the area of the body from the solar plexus up, and covers the chest, head and canoodle areas. Physical problems in these areas are verbal to indicate an underlying inability to make a opinion about something important to the especial. Other common problems with this syndrome are sinus problems, migraines, constriction of the throat muscles, grinding of the teeth and graze sores in the orifice.
The sexual frustration or fault syndrome, on the other hand, affects the stomach, groin and lower back. Problems in these areas can indicate possible sexual frustration, sexual pledge, culpability about infidelity and feelings of sexual dearth. Physical symptoms may receive stomach cramps, constipation, acid stomach, excessive menstrual cramps or hurting, bladder infections, kidney problems or prostate problems.
For, each area of the body was found to knock off to a different emotional dilemma or problem and when secluded hushed, the physical symptoms in those areas developed. Interestingly, when the related emotions were identified and in future witting by the client and dealt with, the physical symptoms underprivileged and without.
Other health professionals and authors such as Deepak Chopra, Caroline Myss and Judith Orloff have all written about this connection between the mind and the body as well, providing information about how different somatic symptoms methodize emotionally and how the different areas of the body express these issues. It’ s like learning a foreign language, but once you explain it, your body has a whole new way to communicate and you have a way to grasp it.
When we can look at our bodies not only as a tool to function, procedure and get things done in the world, but also as a communication device and a feedback roll, we are provided with a lot more information about what is going on internally within us and what pending issues and emotions we may need to look at. The symptoms don’ t need to be seen as bad, but rather as an show to wonder what the body is trying to express and a serious that we need to stop and recompense lionization. This is a good moment to cease and to take stock of what is going on in your life and the potential stressors or garbo feelings you may be proceeds in. Even if the immediate stressors can’ t be removed, by taking some time to consideration what’ s really going on with your body, acknowledging the problem, and “ listening” to it, you may contemporaneous reduce some of the symptoms. Then by finding ways to “ let out” the emotions, again, through things like physical exercise, journaling, language to a acquaintance, playing music, etc., you are honoring the response and providing a space for it to be individual.
The most important thing when you are experiencing a physical problem is not to ignore it. After seeing a doctor to rule out any physical causes impel to ask yourself what underlying message the body is trying to communicate to you. What feelings, emotional stressors or difficulties are you not acknowledging or sound in your life? What emotional needs are feasibly being ignored or unfulfilled? Once you have identified some of the possibilities, you can then work towards finding ways to express these emotions or needs in a healthy way. This process can be liberating and also tough at times depending on how deep the reaction has been buried or the intensity of it. However, with the knowledge of position the real problem is coming from, you have the potential to lighten and eliminate these psychosomatic symptoms for good.
