Par troubles somatoformes, on entend l’ensemble des symptômes ou plaintes de type physique pour lesquels aucune anomalie organique ne peut être incriminée. Il s’agit notamment de la fibromyalgie, du côlon irritable ou encore du syndrome de fatigue chronique. Ces troubles représentent le champ le plus discuté et discutable des classifications nosographiques psychiatriques et sans doute aussi l’une des modalités les plus protéiformes d’expression de la souffrance psychique. Les auteurs de cet ouvrage, tous issus du monde médical ou juridique, tentent d’en explorer les aspects principaux. Sont ainsi abordés les thèmes suivants : - l’expertise des troubles somatoformes ; - la fibromyalgie post-traumatique ; - les cercles vicieux, paradoxes et coûts de la fibromyalgie ; - les traumatismes et séquelles des malades du travail ; - le rôle du médecin-conseil de mutualité dans le retour au travail des patients souffrant de troubles somatoformes ; - l’impact de l’état antérieur dans les troubles somatoformes ; - la conscience et la personnalité dans l’approche des troubles somatoformes ; - l’évaluation des troubles somatoformes succédant à un traumatisme

Cet ouvrage collectif se propose d'actualiser la question de la place du corps et de l'acte dans la vie psychique : la voie somatique apparaît tantôt comme un retour régressif à une expressivité archaïque de l'affect, tantôt comme un recours. L'agir, qu'il soit directement opératoire ou qu'il passe par L'imaginaire, constitue une autre forme de dysfonctionnement - voire de carence - du penser et du représenter. Il s'agit de comprendre l'évolution des pathologies actuelles où le corps s'épuise à dire l'inexprimable ainsi que d'interpréter les pathologies de l'agir, tant au niveau individuel que groupal. Destiné à tous les professionnels du soin psychique (psychologues cliniciens, psychiatres, psychanalystes et psychothérapeutes), ce texte intéressera également les étudiants en psychologie (Master et Doctorat), en spécialité médicale (psychiatrie et pédopsychiatrie), ainsi que les étudiants des écoles d'éducateurs spécialisés et assistants sociaux.

How Patients Think At age twenty-one, Chloë Atkins began suffering from a mysterious illness, the symptoms of which rapidly worsened. Paralyzed for months at a time, she frequently required intubation and life support. She eventually became quadriplegic, dependent both on a wheelchair and on health professionals who refused to believe there was anything physically wrong with her. When test after test returned inconclusive results, Atkins's doctors pronounced her symptoms psychosomatic. Atkins was told not only that she was going to die but also that this was her own fault; they concluded she was so emotionally deranged that she was willing her own death. My Imaginary Illness is the compelling story of Atkins's decades-long battle with a disease deemed imaginary, her frustration with a succession of doctors and diagnoses, her immersion in the world of psychotherapy, and her excruciating physical and emotional journey back to wellness. As both a political theorist and patient, Atkins provides a narrative critique of contemporary medicine and its problematic handling of uncertainty and of symptoms that are not easily diagnosed or known. She convincingly illustrates that medicine's belief in evidence-based practice does not mean that individual doctors are capable of objectivity, nor that the presence of biomedical ethics invokes ethical practices in hospitals and clinics. A foreword by Bonnie Blair O'Connor, who teaches medical students how to listen to patients, and a clinical commentary by Dr. Brian David Hodges, a professor of psychiatry, enrich the book's narrative with practical guidance for medical practitioners and patients alike.

People with somatoform disorder (which used to be known as hysteria) present with a range of symptoms that typically last for years and can't be traced to a specific physical cause. Such symptoms may include frequent headaches; back pain; abdominal cramping and pelvic pain; pain in the joints, legs and arms; chest or abdominal pain, and gastrointestinal problems. This 2004 book is an in-depth, clinically orientated review of the somatoform disorders and related clinical presentations (such as chronic fatigue syndrome) and how they present in a medico-legal setting. It is aimed at both clinicians and lawyers who deal with injury claims where these disorders impact much more frequently than is generally recognised.

Medically unexplained somatic symptoms are problematic in psychiatry, primary care settings, and other clinical areas. The burden they impose on health-care systems constitutes a significant public health problem. At the international symposium "Rethinking Somatoform Disorders," this problem was addressed by specialists working in somatoform disorders, psychiatric nosology, epidemiology, and biological and cross-cultural psychiatry. The meeting was the third of the Keio University International Symposia for Life Sciences and Medicine, in collaboration with the World Health Organization and the World Psychiatric Association.

Despite the rapid advances in medical science, the majority of people who visit a doctor have medically unexplained symptoms (MUS), symptoms that remain a mystery despite extensive diagnostic studies. The most common MUS are back pain, abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, and dizziness. This book addresses the obstacles of managing people with MUS in our modern day society from both a historical and contemporary perspective. Most MUS are psychosomatic in origin, caused by a complex interaction between nature and nurture, between biological and psychosocial factors. Psychosomatic symptoms are as real and as severe as the symptoms associated with structural damage to the brain. Unique and concise, the book explores the biological and psychosocial mechanisms, the clinical features, and current and future treatments of common MUS. Exploring the unsolved in an accessible manner, Medically Unexplained Symptoms invokes the methodologies of medical science, history, and sociology to investigate how brain flaws can lead to debilitating symptoms. .

Un numero sempre crescente di studi misura, in Europa e negli Stati Uniti, l’incidenza negativa dello stress e dei disturbi a esso correlati in termini di patologie letali, giornate di lavoro perse, elevata spesa farmacologica e sanitaria. L’impatto economico e sociale di questo fenomeno ha quindi indotto a considerare lo stress come la malattia del nuovo secolo. Questo volume affronta il fenomeno dello stress e dei disturbi psicosomatici con un approccio complesso e multifattoriale: le conseguenze derivanti dalla somatizzazione possono infatti colpire l’organismo sotto molte forme, come patologie connesse al comportamento alimentare, gastrointestinali, cardiocircolatorie, cutanee ed endocrine. Le categorie diagnostiche chiamate in causa sono quindi molto diverse fra loro, ed è per questa ragione che l’opera si è caratterizzata per una gamma di tematiche particolarmente ampia e per il gran numero di esperti che sono stati coinvolti. Oltre a studiare aspetti del problema talvolta meno considerati, come le specificità di genere e il tema dello “stress positivo”, il volume propone un’adeguata integrazione fra psicoterapia, terapia farmacologica e interventi riabilitativi, costituendo una guida esaustiva rivolta non solo a clinici e psicologi, ma anche a studenti di Psicologia e Medicina.

“This book, at the intersection of mind-body medicine, is a must-read … The authors have done a masterful job of linking together emerging cutting-edge biology with case-based discussions and practical treatment suggestions to aid the development of a mind-body program. Functional disorders are common in pediatrics, and this book is a major advance in bringing this set of conditions out of the shadows and into mainstream educational and clinical initiatives.” — David L. Perez, MD, MMSc; Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, USA “A uniquely creative, well-informed, and authoritative account that uses the latest scientific and clinical research to inform clinical assessment and treatment of functional symptoms and syndromes in children and young people. The authors’ stress-system model for understanding these experiences is complemented by the extensive use of clinical vignettes that are integrated into an overarching clinical framework that will prove useful for trainees and the broad range of clinicians addressing these problems in their own practices.” — Elena Garralda, MD, MPhil, FRCPsych, FRCPCH, Emeritus Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Imperial College London, UK This open access book sets out the stress-system model for functional somatic symptoms in children and adolescents. The book begins by exploring the initial encounter between the paediatrician, child, and family, moves through the assessment process, including the formulation and the treatment contract, and then describes the various forms of treatment that are designed to settle the child’s dysregulated stress system. This approach both provides a new understanding of how such symptoms emerge – typically, through a history of recurrent or chronic stress, either physical or psychological – and points the way to effective assessment, management, and treatment that put the child (and family) back on the road to health and well-being.
