Quote

He tends to somaticise his emotions, turning his fears and worries into physical

symptoms.

Scot Danforth and Terry Jo Smith, Engaging Troubling Students, 2005

Origin

Somaticise is the verb form of somatic, which stems from the Greek

sōmatikós, "of, pertaining to the body." Ultimately both terms derive from the

Greek sôma meaning "body."
