Physical symptoms of mental illness?

[wvbig]

I recently saw a documentary about a serial killer who claimed his stomach would be tied in knots and he'd be very fidgety until he killed someone. Is there any documented mental illness that causes such physical symptoms?

Look up 'psychosomatic illness or disease'.

first, not all of patients that have had same "disease" are same.

for instance, you can find some schizophrenic patients that have more qualified life and also achievements than even normal/natural people. 

also, there are some types of patients that are really dangerous.But I think or the doctors I know reporting that there would be no correlation between diseases and events/achievements (of the those patients have relevant ilnesses)

but one detail might make everything confused, psychiatrists here saying "there are many undetected patients among the folks"
