Paula’s Story | FND Awareness Day UK 2026

April 7, 2026

A personal story of living with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
~~~

I was diagnosed January 2025.

I worked on a Neurology ward and patients like me were being judged as faking their symptoms, seizures, limb weakness, etc. I lost my ability to speak and soon after effected my mobility.

I’m still struggling at the moment, especially after being discharged from work. But I will keep fighting.
