From having a mother, she a middle child in her family, who's been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, I think most "psychosomatic" illnesses are self created and the psychology and pharmaceutical professions only proliferate from it. I'm 100% confident my mother creates the "pain" in her life - not enough attention, feelings of alienation / worthlessness albeit the amount of time she spends helping family, etc. - are brought on by her and her alone.
In my opinion, unless you're a serious case who's taking knives to people one day and hugging them the next, I'd say your condition is created by yourself. From what I read, you post quality and mostly up-beat thoughts, indicative by no serious mental instability like some others who post here. I'm no shrink, I make no declarations that what I say are legitimate in any medical / psychological sense. I just think if you, in all reality, went to the local gardener and smelled the roses now and again while trying to seriously address things in your life causing you problems, it may help. Drug free.

But you see, before I was on the meds, I WAS violent one minute and serene the next. those who know me well can attest to that.
The psychosomatic issues are usually brought on by the strange wirings in one's head. The need for more attention, the fear, the anger...all of that comes from one's brain, intentionally or not. And surely, those who aren't intentionally doing it need help, just as much as those who are intentionally doing it. If someone is intentionally coming off as a poor pity me, attention-whore, always sick, etc. person, wouldn't YOU think he or she was in need of some mental help?
