This eBook is the premier volume of our "Mental Illness/Central Nervous System" series, focussing specifically on " SOMATIC SYMPTOM AND RELATED DISORDERS". This eBook release encompasses diagnoses such as somatic symptom disorder, illness anxiety disorder, functional neurological symptom disorder (conversion disorder), psychological factors affecting other medical conditions, and factitious disorder and others. The content comprises a total of 23 "MCQs with Guiding Answers" and 274 "Linked References". This eBook also contains numerous "Study Highlights or Summary Keypoints" alongside the "CLINICAL PRACTICE INSIGHTS" section. Our primary clients include medical professionals, clinical pharmacists or PharmDs, nurses, and various other individuals in the healthcare sector, such as mentors, residents, and students. We adhere to conventional design principles for all our sequential eBook publications to circumvent the trend of "hypercoloremia mania" in eBook design. This predominantly employs the official black and white colour scheme. This publication resulted from a collaborative effort with my skilled and dedicated coauthors, namely PharmDs Kariman Hatem, Farah Qaryouti, Eman Awwad, Dana AlTaweel, Alia' Saidan, Arwa Alashqar, Duaa Alqhaiwi, Leen Albishawi, Areej Al-Manasyeh, Marah Hussein, and Najd Alyasjeen.
