I used to feel the same way, until I read Sarno’s book. The way he explained what psychosomatic means completely changed my perspective over it. I think the main problem with many doctors is the fact that the patient tends to feel blamed when told that their minds are causing the problem. This is not Sarno’s approach at all, since he states that chronic pain can be seen as a defense mechanism against deep negative emotions.
