Hi Paul where are you in the world? It depends on where you are. I have phone counselling on a weekly basis. If you’re in the U.K. ask the GP for a referral to a specialist neuropsychologist. Your neurologist should arrange this but you can ask the GP too. Once referred there’s no hard set rule about seeing someone face to face if this helps you. If you’re not referring to counselling and are seeking help with a group of fellow FNDers then there are several groups across the UK that meet on a monthly basis. I’ve recently found this place and it helps me to come on here too. I also believe in God and he is what keeps me positive. Dom

You need to stop driving. It’s dangerous for you and the other people on the road. I had to give up driving and I miss it terribly. You have to concentrate on your health now.
