But at the same time, medical research does not show any deviations from the norm, or it is not possible to understand the cause of the disease.

Reasons for the appearance

The famous psychologist and homeopath Valery Sinelnikov has created a certain table of diseases that helps to reveal the psychosomatics of a pathological condition and begin work on getting rid of it.

A runny nose often denotes a person's depression, which he cannot throw out.

The psychologist explains the cough by the person's desire to declare himself, to draw attention to himself.

Frequent sore throat indicates that anger and anger accumulate inside a person that he cannot express. And also about the difficulty with expressing your own feelings, the ability to stand up for yourself.

Nausea and vomiting appear due to rejection of the world, or due to the presence of subconscious fear.

Headaches owe their appearance to inherent hypocrisy.

Cystitis is a sign of dissatisfaction with your partner, the presence of anger towards him.

Diarrhea is a consequence of anxiety and fear. After all, it is often the indigestion that overtakes people before an important event.

Constipation speaks of a person's unwillingness to let go of his past, unnecessary people, or unloved work.

Uterine bleeding signals accumulated resentment and anger.

Thrush means a woman's lack of confidence in herself, or the presence of a feeling of aggression towards the opposite sex.

Kidney problems indicate the presence of anger, judgment, resentment, fear of the future.

Gallbladder disease speaks of accumulated anger and irritability towards other people.

The occurrence of allergies indicates a lack of self-control, as a result of which the body begins to produce a splash out of resentment and anger.

For the treatment of psychosomatic diseases, psychotherapy and medication are used. Recommended for use are art therapy, hypnosis, family therapy, gestalt therapy, the use of psychostimulants, antidepressants. It is impossible to cope with such diseases without the help of a psychotherapist - after all, not only the body, but also the soul suffers from them. And in this case it will not be possible to cope with drug therapy alone.

A significant part of patients suffering from psychosomatic illnesses are people who are used to hiding true emotions.
