The growth of depressive disorders has been noticed all over the world. Some authors suppose it to be one disease - depression getting the form of evident melancholic affect. Depressive, anxiety and somatoform disorders can be examined together as they are exactly the disturbances that reflect epidemiological tendencies of psychic disturbances at present. According to the World Health Organization statistics over the last 10 years, spreading of depressive disorders exceeded 4,1%, and anxiety ones - 6,8% of the population. Spreading of somatoform disorders is within 20 - 25%.In the USA 10% of patients of this group are being examined in general hospitals. In Russia 60 - 80% of similar patients attend general hospitals. In half of cases physical complaints predominate. Somatoform disorders are characterized by long-term duration, considerable activity in seeking medical aid, intensive usage of health services` resources. Such patients are notable for low capacity for work, they are main clients of alternative medicine.

Research has shown some evidence for genetic as well as environmental factors may play a role. Symptomatology: Includes a history of physical complaints prior to age 30 which occur over a period of several years. There must be a significant impairment in functioning or a history of resulting medical treatment. After appropriate assessment by a physician, there is a lack of explanation for the reported symptoms or for at least the severity of the complaints. Treatment: Treatment typically includes long term therapy. The involvement of a single physician is important as a history of seeking medical attention and doctor shopping is common. Prognosis: Is typically a chronic condition with a variable course. Individuals with this disorder do not experience any significant difference in mortality rate or significant illness. Conversion Disorder Etiology: Two schools of though prevail in the etiology of this disorder. One is the psychoanalytic theory which posits that unconscious conflicts cause the conversion of this conflict into physical symptoms. The other suggests that a disturbance in the central nervous system results in this disorder, but neither theory has shown strong statistical evidence.
