I'm scared and I need some reassurance that I'm not going to have a seizure.
I don't have a history of seizures in my family and I've never had one but for some reason it's my biggest fear and I'm convinced I'm going to have one. I think a lot of it has to do with the symptoms of anxiety I have. -trembling (sometimes pretty violent) -brain fog 24/7 -derealisation -muscle cramping

Is this anxiety...?
Hi everyone, this is my first time writing to any forum after 5 years of torture. I hate writing a book about these things so I'll make a long story short. 5 years ago this month i started getting weird feelings of slight denationalization/brain fog throughout the day, and started waking up like it.

I am affected too.
Wow, read so many post here and lots sound like myself. Except one thing, I don't have any conditions (not sure if that would be the correct word or not) I am a 45 year old male now but my problems started about 15 years ago. I am so tired and bored with life now, I don't have the energy to do anything

Healthcare is a joke for FND-Major frustrations
I am so frustration with the whole healthcare issue with FND. According to doctors there is nothing wrong with me, I am completely healthy, but when I go to the only Neurologist I can find here in my State here in the US he diagnoses me with FND/FMD, but can't do a dang thing for me. I can be referred

Anxiety and Disequilibrium??
I was wondering if anyone on here has had periods of severe dizziness and equilibrium problems due to stress and anxiety. The past few weeks I have been feeling very off balance when I walk. My calves also feel very tight like I just ran on a treadmill for an hour. This is constant. Does this sound
