I don't know if you're aware of it, but you're saying some pretty hateful things about mental illness here.
Also, when someone thinks you have an illness with medically unexplained symptoms and they offer a psychological treatment they're not saying the pain isn't real, or that you're making it up. They're saying we don't know how to treat this, but here's something that has an evdence base that works for some people.
