Conversion Disorder in Adults

Conversion disorder, also known as Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), is a complex mental health condition characterized by neurological symptoms that medical or neurological conditions cannot explain. These symptoms can include paralysis, tremors, or non-epileptic seizures, and they often arise in response to psychological stress or trauma. Unlike other neurological disorders, conversion disorder does not have a clear organic cause, making it a unique intersection between mental and physical health.
