Clinico-dynamic and experimental pathological methods were used to examine 650 patients with functional and organic psychosomatoses of the gastrointestinal tract. In the psychosomatic process, four stages were distinguished and described: reactive depression, psychosomatic reactions, formation of the psychosomatic cycles, and characteristic changes. Examination of the given pathology in the log demonstrates that psychosomatoses of the gastrointestinal tract (functional ones in particular) lead to the so-called psychosomatic development of the personality, fairly close to the neurotic development pattern.
