Somatic Symptom Disorder (SSD) is a condition in which individuals experience physical symptoms that cannot be explained by a medical condition or substance use. These symptoms may be distressing and affect daily functioning, leading to excessive worry or anxiety.
The symptoms experienced by people with SSD may vary widely and can include pain, fatigue, gastrointestinal issues, and neurological symptoms. The focus of SSD is on the physical symptoms, rather than their emotional or psychological origin.
