Why Calling It FND Can Be Misleading and Potentially Dangerous

As you might have noticed by now, I am not particularly convinced of the legitimacy of FND as a standalone diagnosis. I believe it is more likely a CNS knee-jerk reaction or referral to underlying causes, rather than a primary cause in itself. In other words, it may be something commonly observed as a consequence of an underlying illness (as pain is to fractures), not something that should automatically be treated or diagnosed as the illness itself, as is increasingly common practice these days.

What do I mean when I hypothesize that Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) might be nothing more than a central nervous system reflex?
