Functional Neurological Disorder

I was wondering if anyone else on here has Functional Neurological Disorder. It is a condition that isn`t very well known about and unfortunately there is a lot of misunderstandings and stigma and sometimes misdiagnoses.

    Hiya @Dancer Whilst I have not got FND, I am familiar and have heard of it before. I know as you mentioned there isn't much information on FND and also there is stigma surrounding it too sadly. I'd be more more than happy to learn more about FND, how it affects those who have it and how we could support those with FND as well. I hope that your are doing okay this week, I'm always on the boards if you want to chat more about this. <3

    Hey @Dancer thanks for sharring what you are going through, missing your volunteering sounds like something you needed to do for your own health and wellness, I hope you can get all the rest you need today. How are you feeling today?

    I hate it when I end up in pain and there`s not always a reason for it. And I end up really tired. I was supposed to go to my volunteering but I could hardly get out of bed let alone get 2 buses.

    That sounds really hard for you right now and I understand how frustrating it must be because you want to go out and do things but then the pain turns up and you don't feel great. I hope your doing okay right now <3. I'm always here if you want to chat.
