[[Myalgic encephalomyelitis]] (ME) and [[chronic fatigue syndrome]] (CFS) have never been classified as mental disorders or mental illness. The [[World Health Organization]] classifies both as '''[[:Category:neurological diseases and disorders|neurological diseases]]''', and they do not appear in the American Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental and Behavioral Disorders (DSM).<ref name="icd10-2016">{{Cite web|url=https://icd.who.int/browse10/2016/en#/G93|title=G93 Other diseases of the nervous system - ICD-10 Version:2016|last=World Health Organization | first = |authorlink=World Health Organization | date = 2016 | website=icd.who.int|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2019-04-13}}</ref> However, [[ME/CFS]] is often poorly understood and can be mistaken for a mental health condition involving "unhelpful [[illness beliefs]]" and "behavioral symptoms". Any person can develop a mental illness, such as [[depression]] and [[anxiety]], including people with ME/CFS. {{Main article|Patient mental health}} ==Please create pages for== <div style="column-count:2;"> *[[Bodily integrity disorder]] (desire to be disabled) *[[Conversion disorder]] *[[Factitious disorder imposed on self]] / [[Fabricated illness]] / [[Munchausen's syndrome]] *[[Factitious disorder imposed on other]] (redirect) *[[Reactive depression]] (Secondary depression) *[[Reactive anxiety]] (Secondary anxiety) *[[Selective mutism]] *[[Somatoform disorder]] / [[Somatic symptom disorder]] *[[Chronic illness and mental health]] </div> ==See also== *[[:Category:Psychological signs and symptoms|Psychological signs and symptoms]] (category) ==Please expand these stub pages== {{StubPagesInCategory|Psychology|mode=inline}} ==References == {{Reflist}} [[Category:Diagnoses]] [[Category:Psychology]]
