Is it difficult to cure neurosis?

Neurosis, also known as somatization disorder, is a type of neurosis. It has proven to be difficult to cure.

The main clinical manifestations are various somatic discomforts, such as chest tightness, panic, gastrointestinal discomfort, indigestion, etc. No obvious diseases are detected after various examinations or the detected diseases cannot explain the patient’s symptoms.
