FND - Diary of an Invisible Wound: An intimate journey through trauma, silence and recovery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250179713)

FND - Diary of an Invisible Wound

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is real, disabling, and widely misunderstood. Symptoms can include paralysis, tremors, seizures, speech disturbances, and profound fatigue, yet standard scans often show no structural damage. For many patients, the physical struggle is only the beginning. The deeper battle is for recognition, dignity, and understanding.

In FND - Diary of an Invisible Wound, Stephanie Haveman offers an honest and deeply personal account of living with FND. She explores how trauma and chronic stress can dysregulate the nervous system, how medical journeys can become confusing and fragmented, and how identity shifts when the body no longer cooperates.

This is not a medical textbook. It is a patient perspective-raw, reflective, and grounded in lived experience. It speaks to those navigating unexplained neurological symptoms, to families trying to understand, and to professionals seeking insight beyond clinical language.

Bridging the gap between neurology and psychology, between science and story, this book invites readers to look beyond what scans can show and to listen to what the body is trying to say.

For patients, loved ones, and healthcare professionals ready to see FND differently.
