Help me improve my functional neurological disorder
Manage episode 432540311 series 3457603
"FND is one of the most common disorders that you've never heard about"
Dr Damon Ashworth, Clinical Psychologist, interviews Dr Harvey Jones, Clinical Neuropsychologist on one of his specialised interests - functional neurological disorder (FND).
Harvey is at the forefront of the healthcare system in helping people with FND better understand what is going on for them with their brain and physical health, and what they can do about it.
FND is one of the most misunderstood conditions out there. A diagnosis of FND does not mean that "it is all in your head". Psychology is involved, but this does not mean that people with FND are feigning or making it up in any way. If someone was really making things up, they wouldn't be out there searching for answers and solutions.
Please listen to part one of our series on FND to learn more. If it sounds like anyone that you know may benefit from learning about FND too, please share it with them!
