What Is Conversion Disorder, and How Does It Affect Mental and Physical Health? - #15483
I recently came across the term conversion disorder, and I wanted to understand more about it. From what I understand, conversion disorder is a mental health condition where psychological stress causes physical symptoms, but what exactly triggers it, and why does it happen? I read that conversion disorder can cause symptoms like paralysis, tremors, seizures, or loss of vision or speech, but doctors often don’t find a clear medical reason for these symptoms. How do medical professionals differentiate conversion disorder from neurological conditions like epilepsy or multiple sclerosis? One thing that concerns me is whether conversion disorder is temporary or if it can become chronic. What are the best ways to manage symptoms and prevent recurrence? Are there any Ayurvedic or holistic treatments that help with conversion disorder? I’ve heard that Brahmi, Ashwagandha, and meditation can help with stress reduction and nervous system balance—do these actually work? If anyone has experienced conversion disorder, what was your recovery journey like? Did therapy, medications, or alternative treatments provide the most relief?
