It represents a distortion of cenesthesia; the internal, global, implicit, and affective sense of inhabiting one's body.
The term was coined in 1907 by French neuropsychiatrists Ernest Ferdinand Pierre Louis Dupré and Paul Camus in their seminal paper Les cénesthopathies, to describe a clinical entity characterized by "alterations of the common or internal sensibility"; disorders of sensations that continuously arrive at the brain from throughout the body.
