Somatoform disorder is a group of diseases in which patients complain of pain, dysfunction of various organs, but during examination doctors cannot find objective data for diagnosis. Patients are convinced of the incompetence of the doctor and refuse to turn to a psychologist or psychiatrist for advice and treatment.
In somatoform disorder , treatment consists of the following points:
- Psychotherapeutic treatment — helps the patient to reconsider his attitude to physical sensations and beliefs about health, learn how to cope with stress and anxiety.
- Drugs — tranquilizers relieve anxiety, antidepressants correct mood, nootropics have a positive effect on brain function. These and other modern medicines are selected individually depending on the characteristics of the symptoms.

Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a short—term, rapidly passing condition. Patients rarely treat such phenomena with sufficient seriousness. This is a mistake. OG is a pathology that is evidence of other, more serious conditions. Therefore, with the regular occurrence of seizures, it is recommended to consult a doctor for examination and prescribing the necessary therapy.
Treatment results
With the timely implementation of all necessary procedures, good results can be achieved, since the prognosis of the pathological process is very favorable.
Consequences of lack of treatment
If a patient does not come to a psychotherapist's consultation in a timely manner, he can take painkillers, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodics, cardiotropic drugs for months, years in vain. These medications do not alleviate the condition because they do not affect the underlying problem.
Neglected forms of somatoform disorder that have not been treated properly also lead to organic changes. This is due to a violation of innervation and the normal supply of nutrients to these organs. Somatoform dysfunction — a disease that has only a psychological basis — passes over time to the physiological level. Complications will occur only if treatment is not started in a timely manner and taking into account only an integrated approach.
