What is the connection between fibromyalgia and emotions?

Imagine carrying an invisible backpack filled with frustrations, anxieties, and sadness, day after day. Over time, this weight becomes so heavy that it begins to weigh on your entire body. Some specialists call fibromyalgia “the disease of unexpressed emotions.” Why? Because these repressed emotions, trapped inside, seem to manifest as constant, diffuse physical pain. But is it possible to free yourself from this burden?
Understanding the link between emotions and fibromyalgia
Since ancient times, human beings have often been considered to be an indivisible whole, composed of a  body, a mind and a soul . When this  balance is disrupted , disorders can appear. Fibromyalgia seems to be a relevant example of this  imbalance .
People with fibromyalgia typically experience  widespread muscle pain, intense fatigue, and sleep disturbances .
