Online support groups

Given Functional Neurological Disorder is still little known, people are often given the diagnosis and left to search for answers as to what it is and how you can get better. This can lead to a person feeling extremely isolated. 

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Online support groups allow a person to connect with others in similar circumstances; Find out what FND is, share experiences, explore ways to get better, receive and give support, and make friends. 

FND Action provide private support groups on Facebook for people diagnosed, their carers, and their family and friends. Links can be found below:
