Whether these symptoms are traits, states, or \"scars\" due to chronic starvation has not been fully established.

The Somatic Symptom Scale-8 (SSS-8) is a simple tool to assess medical conditions related to SSRDs, but the cut-off point to identify severe cases of comorbid CSS is unknown.

This idea was proposed by Dr. Yujiro Ikemi as a characteristic observed in patients with psychosomatic diseases and is based on his observations that patients with psychosomatic diseases have difficulty in the awareness and expression of not only their emotions, i.e., alexithymia, but also somatic feelings and sensations, i.e., alexisomia. He also proposed that treating alexisomia is important in the treatment of psychosomatic diseases and that yoga might help improve alexisomia.
