Journal of Psychosomatic Research. 58 (4): 367–373. doi:10.1016/j.jpsychores.2005.02.002. ISSN 0022-3999. The data suggest that CFS patients without a comorbid psychiatric disorder do not have an exercise phobia.

somatic symptom disorder A psychiatric term to describe an alleged condition whereby a person's thoughts somehow cause physical symptoms. The actual existence of such a condition is highly controversial, due to a lack of scientific evidence. It is related to other psychiatric terms, such as "psychosomatic", "neurasthenia", and "hysteria". Older terms include "somatization", "somatoform disorder", and "conversion disorder". Such terms refer to a scientifically-unsupported theory that claims that a wide range of physical symptoms can be created by the human mind, a theory which has been criticized as "mind over matter" parapsychology, a pseudoscience.
