Ans: B
Complex somatic symptom disorder typically has an onset before age 30 years, with the first symptom often appearing during adolescence. The disorder is diagnosed more often in women and occurs most often with depression and anxiety. Epidemiologic studies reveal that the disorder occurs primarily in nonwhite, less educated women, particularly those with lower socioeconomic status and high emotional stress.
