Usually it causes childhood diseases in the family, where the parents work long hours, or for some reason still pay little attention to the child. Although the children are well aware that, when they get sick, you get more attention from the important adults they, nevertheless, a bunch of "attention - disease" in them, rather subconscious. That is not the child specifically decided to start to hurt, and the body itself decided on the basis of negative emotions due to lack of attention and of past experience, showing how it is possible to note receive.

2. The only way to express emotions

Some families used this style of parenting when children are forbidden to show emotions: do not cry (and even sad), but also can not rejoice over, etc. The child has to constantly suppress their emotions, especially negative. If this happens regularly and for a long time, then finally it leads to disease. In addition, the child ceases to recognize their own emotions can not understand what he feels and why, if he is sad or joyful indeed.

3. increased anxiety

If a child is going through a whole day due to estimates, the answer to the lesson of communication with peers, it creates a huge load on the body, taking away a lot of energy. As a result, the body pours it into a disease - either from fatigue or to switch attention.

4. Depression, neurosis, chronic stress

For example, it may be a reaction to the child's body in the separation from loved ones, death of a loved person or animal, the fear of an important exam. In this case, the disease treated simtomaticheski after seeking medical attention. But if the cause of stress is constantly accompanied by the child - for example, family problems, bullying, emotional and physical violence, depression - the illness will not go away until it is worked out psychological component.

It is worth noting that not all children are equally vulnerable to the emergence of psychosomatic diseases. Most often, they suffer maloemotsionalnye and unsociable children who pay little attention to - or vice versa kept under constant control, children with low self-esteem and excessive demands to themselves, vulnerable, pessimistic.
