Definition

This category should be used to record the presence of psychological or behavioural influences thought to have played a major part in the aetiology of physical disorders which can be classified to other chapters. Any resulting mental disturbances are usually mild, and often prolonged (such as worry, emotional conflict, apprehension) and do not of themselves justify the use of any of the categories in this chapter.
