Morbus

'Morbus' is the Latin word for disease. The Stoic philosopher- Chryssipus used the word 'Pathos' (affection/emotion) interchangeably with 'morbus.' Of course, from most modern philosophers, he has gotten quite a bit of flack for this interchange. Having a bad day and saying "I'm so ill right now" rather than "I'm so emotional right now" seems a little counter intuitive and, quite frankly, wrong.

The Stoics thought the entirety of the human soul was rational. We usually think of it colloquially as being a bit more complicated than that. We think of our desires, our thoughts, our will, our emotions, our instincts, our intuitions... etc There are quite a few words we use to describe our states of being. The stoics thought all of these stemmed from our rational faculty. Another way to say this, was that all of these states of being stemmed from our beliefs or judgements about things.
