Guest guest Posted June 26, 2002 Report Share Posted June 26, 2002 When I taught freshman psychology, when of the hardest concepts I had to get across was that psychosomatic diseases were not all in the head. Usually my class would accept that ulcers might start from worry and stress but they were very real things as well as the hole eaten in your stomach from the excess acid. Of course, now, decades later, we find it is not so mucy worry and stress but a certain bacteria. All in the head, indeed. Just like labor pain!
