My eyes roll back.
I’m losing control top down –
Trapped.

A passenger in a car
speeding down the highway
with no driver.
Concrete brick
on the gas pedal,
no hands on the wheel –
Trapped.

I can hear voices around me,
feel a hand in mine.
My head lolls.
I try to speak,
but there’s a thick wad of cotton
stuffed down my throat.
Forget about speaking,
I can’t even breathe –
Trapped.

FND + mobility aids = empowerment. For many living with Functional Neurological Disorder, these tools aren’t defeats, they’re freedom. Use what helps you move through the world. 💙

April is FND Awareness Month! I acquired functional neurological disorder a few years ago as a result of COVID infection. I experience intermittent paralysis, muscle weakness, brain fog, tremors, and non-epileptic seizures as a result.

More and more we learn about how flu and other common viruses impact the brain long term:
Influenza and Alzheimer's.
Epstein Barr and Multiple Sclerosis.
Chickenpox and Shingles.

With so many viruses laying dormant in our peripheral nervous system we need to better understand how they impact us over time.

Patients with little-known neurological condition wait years for diagnosis

People with functional neurological disorder say they experience misdiagnosis and struggles within the medical system.

FND, explained simply:

Your brain sends signals like

“move,” “speak,” “stand.”

With FND, the signal gets scrambled

on the way.

The body isn’t broken.

The message just doesn’t land.

It’s not imagined.

It’s neurological.

hello!! #introduction i’m rosy and have been struggling with #FunctionalNeurologicalDisorder since mid 2020. i was diagnosed about a year ago and am new to the online disabled community and the world of disability advocacy, so any advice/criticism/support is always appreciated! i’m mostly a lurker but i haven’t seen many people with #FND on here yet, so i thought i’d throw my hat in the ring. i have a lot of symptoms that mimic #tourettes so my posts may often be about that! #NEISvoid #FNDaware
