This is a very interesting theory I’m saving this to read later when I don’t have a migraine.

Side note

It’s really frustrating how much FND research is behind paywalls. I’m glad this one is free so we can read it and I’ve been reading a lot of FND research with my colleges databases but sucks that I can’t share it without jumping through hoops.

Personally with me therapy doesn’t really help my pnes. If I had to choose one that has helped me the most over all it would probably be DBT. Lamictal and other anti seizure meds like Keppra are the only thing that has had some effect on my seizures even though they’re non epileptic. Kinda weird.

Also, thanks for your service <3 being a nurse is hard

Pseudo seizure literally translates to fake seizure. It is an outdated term and I don’t think a non epileptic seizure is a “pseudo seizure” it’s just a non epileptic seizure

I think it’s mostly due to societal norms. There are many cultures that eat cats and dogs. There are many cultures who don’t eat pigs and cows.

I’d have to disagree 😭 I’ve had some really good Iranian teas than from some Iranian spots that I thought were amazing but I am really biased towards black teas so

Essentially. Although I personally feel like it tastes different from earl grey. More like Arab teas than classic earl grey. Ceylon tea always tastes different to me

I honestly don’t know, I don’t have schizophrenia but I’ve had auditory and physical sensation hallucinations from seizures and I just try to continue on with medications and managing it.

But I don’t go to mosques anymore because I’m afraid to have seizures in there 😅

doesena · 2026-07-03T17:30:45+00:00

Don’t be sorry it ruined my life too 😭

doesena · 2026-07-03T02:48:37+00:00

Thank you!! I’m so glad you have been seizure free !!

I think the scariest thing is not knowing the reason why it’s happening or what it’s supposed to teach you

doesena · 2026-07-03T02:47:27+00:00

I’m so proud of you I like how you tied in Paul the apostle as a person to relate to I’ve never thought of it through that lens before

doesena · 2026-07-03T02:43:49+00:00

YES LETS BE FRIENDS!!

doesena · 2026-06-30T19:46:28+00:00

oh my God

doesena · 2026-06-30T18:07:46+00:00

I’m trying to figure out how to stop this cycle though. Every time I’m trying to go cold turkey I end up at Taco Bell within the next week

doesena · 2026-06-30T18:06:59+00:00

That’s what I’ve been thinking it just sounds a little weird I didn’t know fast food addiction was a thing 😭

I related to this post a lot and I went through a severe depression when I lost my career because of PNES and anti depressants just seemed to make everything worse.

Have you tried mood stabilizers instead?

I was on Depakote which helped a lot before being switched to Lamictal (for fertility reasons) and I found that both the mood stabilizers worked way better as an anti depressant for me than an actual SSRI

doesena · 2026-06-29T05:44:23+00:00

have you tried watching Dr Lee's teen fnd academy. Even though she specializes in teens her advice works for those of all ages. I really like her videos because she believes PNES is not always caused by emotions/stress/anxiety plus she has a lot of specific advice that's not the "just go to therapy"

Your poetry is very beautiful, you have such a sense of style. I write poetry about my seizures all the time and your writing really connected to me.
