There have been several reports concerning the psychiatric factors involved in the onset and clinical course of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We investigated patients with IBS who had been markedly disturbed in thier daily life, and it was concluded that the most important psychiatric factor related to the onset and the clinical course of severely impaired IBS is a major depression, fulfilling the criteria of the DSM-III.R. Most of IBS patients with a major depression can be effectively treated with antidepressants and brief psychotherapy. IBS patients with an anxiety disorder were treated with psychotherapy such as Morita therapy. About 80% of IBS patients were markedly improved with these psychosomatic approaches.
