FND Diagnosis Support

Hi, Everyone my name is Victoria, I was diagnosed in 2020 with fnd that include fainting & seizures. I wasn't unable to work until Oct 2020. When I was denied for social security told me I was high functioning I'm autistic. I made my condition worse by working at Amazon 10 hrs a day with active symptoms. Doctors are refusing treat me or explain whats happening or why I can't walk. Their also refusing my mental health medication. My life is falling apart. I have no friends or family that understand I am never better. I am always fighting. Half of family is 100% supportive the rest believe I'm faking. Fiancé is autistic & isn't possessing, he freaks out constantly. My stress is making it worse. I feel Even more broken.

I understand I am autistic and suffering from mental health and fnd and Sjogrens disease and many other conditions on top and I have family siblings but that without support from them and I have adhd and learning disabilities as well I have seizures as well and the professionals couldn't understand why I can't walk so I fully understand what it's like sending love and the pain at the moment is horrendous for me I haven't been great this week with the pain is so awful.
