Somatic delusions are false beliefs that individuals hold about their bodies. These delusions often involve concerns about physical health or bodily functions, such as believing one has a serious medical condition despite evidence to the contrary. Somatic delusions are a common symptom of somatic symptom disorder and other psychiatric conditions.
