Its not uncommon for many of us to experience physical symptoms that seem to have no medical explanation. Why do you have a throbbing headache after a stressful day? Why does your stomach churn before an important or challenging event? Why do you stammer in front of your co-workers but speak fluidly with family at home? These are all mild forms of somatization brought on by stress, anxiety, depression, fear, anger, and possibly even a medical issue. For some individuals, these and other similar symptoms occur so frequently that they affect the overall quality of life. That is when the condition is referred to as conversion disorder or functional neurological disorder. Because the symptoms, most often, are not linked directly to a medical issue, there is a tendency to assume that the affected individual is faking it. That only makes matters worse!
Conversion disorder treatment involves therapy and counseling. Your therapist will work with you to help reduce symptoms and any co-occuring disorders.
