🧡4️⃣FND Myth vs Fact (4/5)4️⃣🧡

Continuing with my 5 myths vs facts about Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), here is myth 4 of 5:

MYTH: FND only affects women in early to mid-adulthood.
FACT: FND can affect people of any age, gender, or ethnicity. Although FND is more common in females and their symptoms often appear in adolescence to early adulthood, FND also affects males and symptoms can develop in childhood.

I'm new here!

Hi, my name is DrLottie. ❤️
I'm here because I believe that living with disabilities should never mean living without dignity, respect, opportunity, or a voice.
I'm a Black woman, a mother, grandmother, nonprofit founder, and lifelong community advocate. I've faced serious health challenges, trauma, and situations where I've had to fight to be heard and accommodated.
Recently, my efforts to advocate for accessibility while serving my community were followed by a frightening experience that has affected my sense of safety, emotional well-being, and ability to work.
But I refuse to let fear become the end of my story.
I'm here to connect with people who understand what it means to keep showing up, even when life gets overwhelming. I'm looking for encouragement, understanding, shared experiences, and opportunities to advocate for meaningful change.
**Disability inclusion isn't just about making room for us. It's about respecting our voices once we're in the room.**
I hope my journey helps someone else feel seen, heard, and less alone.
❤️🤍💙 Love, Dr. Lottie With A Purpose

Hi, my name is AppreciativeHamster1. I'm here because I just wanted to look at OCD memes. I really do have OCD though.
