Why Doctors Still Treat FND Like ‘Hysteria’, and How That Hurts Recovery Today

Описание: Watch how I've helped 100+ families resolve Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) even though they tried everything and failed: https://www.teenfndacademy.com/tfa-yt

If your teen has been told their Functional Neurological Disorder looks like “hysteria,” you’re not imagining the impact that outdated thinking still has on care today.

In this video, I reveal why doctors sometimes treat FND as if it’s still a centuries-old problem, from outdated labels like “psychogenic non epileptic seizures” to even older origins like “wandering womb”, and how these beliefs quietly shape diagnosis, treatment, and recovery outcomes.

You’ll learn:
• How the “hysteria”, "wondering womb", and "Conversion Disorder" labels have evolved but still influence how FND is handled in hospitals and clinics.
• Why outdated terms cloud recovery potential, even when they sound harmless.
• The mindset and action steps families can take to break free from care that keeps them stuck.
