Jon Stone and I are back to continue with part four, of seven, of our series on functional neurological disorder. Today we will focus on the diagnostic explanation. So many patients have never heard of FND before receiving this diagnosis. Can you share how you explain the diagnosis to your patients? Dr. Jon Stone: So I'm aware that many neurologists do find this difficult. And I have to say, having thought about it for 20 years or so now, I think the answer is, don't be weird. Do what you normally do with any condition, when you explain it to patients. I think what goes wrong is that people see FND as something weird and other, and they start to do weird things like telling people that their scans are normal, or telling them what they don't have before they've started to tell them what they do. If you go with the normal rules of explanation, first of all, starting by giving it a name that you prefer, so you've got FND, or try and be specific if you can. You've got functional seizures, functional movement disorder. Give it a name to start with. Don't sort of spend a long time beating around the bush before you do that. Talk a bit about why you've made the diagnosis, because that's what you normally do. So if someone's got a weak leg, show them their Hoover's sign. I think actually showing people their physical signs is probably one of the most powerful things you can do, brings the diagnosis away from the scanner and into the clinic room. And also, they can see in front of them the potential for improvement. So it feeds forward into treatment. Yes, you might need to explain why they don't have some other conditions that they're worried about, but you can leave discussions about why it's happened for later. I think what tends to go wrong is people jump into that too early. So the bottom line, just do what you normally do and things generally go a lot more smoothly. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: And when you're providing the diagnostic explanation, it can be really helpful to link the patient's experience and their symptoms to the diagnosis. And so, I wonder how you integrate that piece into your diagnostic explanation, or how you tailor your explanation to an individual patient. Dr. Jon Stone: Yeah, I think tailoring is really important here. And this is where obviously if you've done your assessment, so helpful to ask the patient is, "Well, what do you think's wrong? What things were you worried about? " Some people say, "Look, I'm really worried I've got MS." Or some people say, "I haven't got FND. I've read about that. " Or sometimes people are wondering if they've got FND. So, you've got to try and tailor it to what the person is expecting and particularly previous experiences. If they're telling you how angry they were about doctors A, B, and C, then obviously you want to use that and try not to end up with the same outcome. Why would there be a problem with this diagnosis? It's because they haven't heard about it, because they've got misconceptions about it. Do they feel that this diagnosis would be saying it's all in their mind or something like that? You might need to be explicit about that. But I think this links into how, it's not just about the diagnostic label, it's about a formulation, which is something we don't think about much in neurology. So there's a label for what's wrong, but in FND, a formulation, why have you got FND, in your particular case, is what we're sort of moving on to there based on the story that you've heard. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: Yeah. And I think in my experience and in working with trainees, really just practicing, saying it, is so important and saying it in a way that feels honest and correct to you as a clinician. Dr. Jon Stone: Yeah, absolutely. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: So we will be back for more Neurology Minute episodes to continue our discussion on FND. Next, we're going to be talking about treatment. Thanks for listening.

When you create order in one part of your business, disorder will show up somewhere else and that's not a sign of failure, it's the science of growth. In this episode, we break down the law of entropy and explain why the most successful leaders learn to anticipate chaos, secure team buy-in and rebuild systems as their business scales. You'll hear real examples of what disorder looks like and the risk of lack of engagement, uneven workloads and resistance. If you're growing, leading change, or planning a big shift in your business, this episode will give you the mindset and tools to manage disorder instead of being blindsided by it.   GET MY BOOK!

In part three of this seven-part series on FND, Dr. Jon Stone and Dr. Gabriela Gilmour discuss causes of functional neurologic disorder.  Show citation:  Hallett M, Aybek S, Dworetzky BA, McWhirter L, Staab JP, Stone J. Functional neurological disorder: new subtypes and shared mechanisms. Lancet Neurol. 2022;21(6):537-550. doi:10.1016/S1474-4422(21)00422-1 Show transcript:  Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: This is Gabriela Gilmour with the Neurology Minute. Jon Stone and I are back to continue with part three of our seven-part series on functional neurological disorder. Today, we will focus on the causes of FND. So Jon, there have been many advances in our understanding of the mechanism of FND in the last 10, 15 years. And so what do we know about this now? Dr. Jon Stone: I think the key message I want to get across here is that whereas previously we had a very psychiatric, purely psychiatric view of FND, it used to be called conversion disorder, what we've got now is a multi-perspective view of the mechanisms, which mean that we can understand FND at a kind of neural level or brain circuit level, but we can also still retain the importance of psychological factors, traumatic events. And I think it's also important to separate out, as you've done here with a question, what's the mechanism? How is the symptom happening versus why is it happening? Which often people don't do. So for this question, how is it happening? How is it that somebody, for example, gets a weak leg? Well, at a very simple level, their brain is disconnecting from their leg and that's what dissociation is. And you can explain that to patients at sort of brain circuit level. We've learned that there are disruptions probably in the circuits in our brain that relate to that sense of agency, the parts of our brain that tell us that our bodies belong to us. And people are particularly interested in an area called the temporary parietal junction. And at a higher broader level, people are particularly interested in the idea that FND is a disorder that you would expect to happen based on our understanding of the brain as a predictive organ. So if the brain spends its time predicting things, maybe in FND what's gone wrong is this is very strong prediction that the leg is weak or that there's a tremor or that a seizure's about to happen that overrides sensory input telling our brain otherwise. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: And I guess to follow into that, you mentioned what is going on. So now can you talk a little bit about why somebody might develop FND or the etiology of FND? Dr. Jon Stone:  I think this helps clinically as well as neurologists, because we can talk about mechanism as we would, for example, with MS as inflammation, but why is there inflammation? So okay, the brain's gone wrong, but why has it gone wrong? And there we need a much more complex view of multiple range of risk factors, predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating that we know are associated with FND, but vary a lot from person to person. So no one person's the same. If you've had traumatic experiences in the past, that will make you more prone to dissociation. If you've had other functional disorders, if you have almost certainly some forms of genetics make people predisposed. And then as we said in the last episode, having another neurological condition, so having migraine aura, a physical injury, an infective illness, these are powerful reasons to trigger neurological symptoms. And it's not so much why they happen. It's more why do they get there and get stuck? We all probably have transient functional symptoms actually, but why they get stuck in people with FND for various reasons to do with the way their brains work or their past experiences, or sometimes what happens to them in medical systems. So developing a very open idea about why someone might have FND really helps you, I think, explain that back to patients and produce individual sort of formulations of the problem. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: Yeah. And I often say to my patients, "I don't know exactly why you, why today have this." And that's true in medicine in general. We actually often don't know why anybody develops any medical condition with a few exceptions, but we know about risk factors really. Dr. Jon Stone: Absolutely. It's one of the reasons I hate the term medically unexplained. Actually, I think FND is perhaps more explained in some ways than some of the other conditions like multiple sclerosis and ALS that we actually deal with where we really don't know why they happen. Dr. Gabriela Gilmour: Well, we will be back for more Neurology Minute episodes to continue our discussion on FND. Thanks for listening.

Shining a Light on Seasonal Affective Disorder with Lee Anne Walmsley - BWR: Vodcast Ep. 113

Are we witnessing rising Islamic militancy in Bangladesh? Or could it become a model for other developing countries? A nationwide celebration is underway. It's Victory Day for Bangladesh's 176 million people. Fifty-four years ago today -- December 16th, 1971 -- the former state of East Pakistan became the modern, independent nation of Bangladesh.   But few people are pleased with the trajectory Bangladesh is currently on. What's been happening this past 15 months has shaken this country to its core. On August 5th, 2024 protests over government job quotas escalated into a wider anti-government movement, with a resulting violent crackdown leading to the ousting of the long-time ruler, Sheikh Hasina. She now faces the death penalty if she returns. Her whole political party, the Awami League, has been banned too.   Now the Muslim-majority state faces perhaps the most significant fork-in-the-road moment since its independence. The February 2026 election. Can the caretaker leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus pull it off? Will it be free and fair?  It is possible that stability and democracy will be restored. It is also possible that an Islamist takeover and the cancellation of Democracy will ensue. To find out how the election could not only reshape contemporary Bangladesh's political foundations but also South Asian stability, security cooperation and geopolitical rivalries, Disorder co-host Mark Lobel is joined by three experts on the ground in the country. 1- Debapriya Bhattacharya-- Economist, public policy analyst and Distinguished Fellow at the Centre for Policy Dialogue in Dhaka, Aasha Mehreen Amin -- joint editor at The Daily Star, and Iftekharuz Zaman -- Executive Director of Transparency International Bangladesh. Although we don't hear about it much in the Western press, investors and policymakers the world over certainly have their eyes peeled on South Asia's second largest economy and what it decides to do next. We hope you the Orderers enjoy this exclusive journalistic content.  If you like more deepdives like this and appreciate the effort we are putting in please: PLEASE join our Mega Orderers Club, and get ad free listening, early episode releases, bonus content and exclusive access to live events, visit https://disorder.supportingcast.fm/  Producer: George McDonagh Subscribe to our Substack - https://natoandtheged.substack.com/ [Join the pay for substack for the 8 Jan event] Disorder on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DisorderShow Show Notes Links: You can get in touch with Mark, to host or speak at your event here: https://www.mark-lobel.com/getintouch  Aasha's 'No Strings Attached' column: https://www.thedailystar.net/author/aasha-mehreen-amin  National Survey of Bangladesh: https://www.iri.org/resources/national-survey-of-bangladesh-september-october-2025/  Citizen's Platform for SDGs, Bangladesh: https://bdplatform4sdgs.net/  Pls Join the Mega Orderers Club for ad-free listening and early release of the episodes, via this link: https://disorder.supportingcast.fm/ Join us at our live event in RUSI on January 8th https://my.rusi.org/events/disorder-podcast-live-what-disorder-will-2026-bring.html (You need to join RUSI or the Mega Orderers Club or Paid for Substack to attend) Learn more about your ad choices.

Contact Welcomed HereWhen we are accountable things add up so we feel like we count. Absolute Reality has no reservations or exceptions. We can think IT does and feel isolated and alone while nursing baseless thoughts.  We do not need to understand any story we make-up to recognize the disturbing effects caused by sick thinking. The idea that facing Reality is complicated is not true. Trying to avoid it for any length of time is infinitely more complicated than facing it honestly. We Know We Know and are also readily and obviously aware even while and when we think and this say we aren't. We are free to choose to think whatever and however we think so when we create a sense of condemnation and doom it is the sum of how and what we are thinking about things that is felt. Practicing this is talking about how and what you think openly and honestly as thought.  Taking seriously the idea that thoughts are reality turns the idea of expressing what we are thinking openly into a seeming external threat - that does not feel funny no matter how silly the premise. Honesty does not require we be right. Honesty includes talking openly about whatever we are thinking about right or wrong.  To chronically think thoughts are right and never apply them is like sitting in the couch all day wondering how to be productive.  Thinking we ever keep these ideas to our seeming self becomes another secret we think we can keep even while we secrete blood, sweat and anxious, pitiful tears. Self-pity reflects the pitiful useless self we think is all we are. Usefulness is determined by how well we read our body language. Our functional literacy determines the degree to which we utilize our full functional capacity.  If our limited thoughts are imagine to be Reality the potential to rehabilitated and redeem any useless thinking will, by choice, be limited as evidence our wrong thoughts are right. We can create a mess and then blame the mess for the scarcity of our situation.  This only makes sense in induced insanity. To impose doubt where there is none is something we are free to do - but it doesn't make any sense beyond the limited ideas we make believe are our own seeming reality and truth.  The basis of Existence is Absolute and thus so is Nature. The nature of Nature is our nature; no exceptions, no other options, no doubts since there is no question. All the questionable doubts we encounters are not mysteries of the universe but a mystery as to why we don't bother to simply mention them.  We Know We Know. We Are Aware We Are Aware. We Are as We Are. Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune that are accurately called disorders. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse Nature's Law and Order and our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and compound and degrade health. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion. Principles affirm Our Indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality which is impossible to accomplish though we are free to try. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible gibberish of ignorance - not reality.

According to the American National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders, around 9% of the US population are affected by an eating disorder. We've all heard of anorexia, bulimia and binge eating, which are among the most commonly diagnosed. But there is also orthorexia. It's called orthorexia, coming from the Latin words “orthos”, meaning correct and “orexis”, meaning appetite. American doctor Steven Bratman coined the term in 1997. To put it simply, orthorexia is a need to eat healthy at all costs, to the extent that it becomes an obsession. Those affected start cutting out certain foods completely, or even seeing them as dangerous when they're not really. Scientifically speaking, orthorexia isn't recognised as an eating disorder in its own right, at least not yet. So it's hard to find any precise data on how many people are affected. But it's still more dangerous than you might think. Isn't eating healthily recommended by medical professionals?

The title of this symposium, Catching the Clues, Changing the Cause of Lysosomal Storage Disease: Illuminating Complex Pathway of Rare Disease with Fabry Disease, Alpha-Mannosidosis, in Focus.This is a disclaimer: Following discussion does not focus on or depict any specific products manufactured by any pharmaceutical company. Patient cases are for medical discussion only and reflect the faculty own experience. They represent a typical clinical scenario. This presentation in part and whole may not be reproduced and not copy and not recording.I'm Dr. Eto from Tokyo, Japan, and the three distinguished speakers: Dr. Nicole Muschol from Germany, Eppendorf University. Professor Aguiar, the Portuguese, The Inborn Errors of Metabolism Reference Center, and also Professor Robert Hopkin, Cincinnati Children's Hospital, United States.The purpose of this symposium: Explore the patient journey across the LSD continuum, focusing on the unmet needs and diagnosis, and treatment initiation, and long-term management, and utilize case-based discussion focused on Alpha-mannosidosis, Fabry disease to highlight disease-specific challenges. Access where challenge persist in patient journey, and where tailored intervention can improve outcomes.Introduction of LSD patient journey with a spotlight on Fabry disease, Alpha-mannosidosis. Challenge to the diagnosis and then treatment and monitoring. Common LSD challenges over the patient journey, as shown here, and at least more than 70 different lysosomal diseases known. Incidence is about 1:5,000-1:8,000 in newborn. In the literature, much higher incidence.Multi-organ manifestation in many organ involved, and clinical heterogeneity are very complicated. The new screen method has been established already. Identify patient presymptomatically. That important by the newborn screening, something like that, early treatment essential. After the diagnosis treatment start, early and the presymptomatic treatment initiation, and usually delayed diagnosis, delayed treatment. Perceived burden of treatment may delay treatment start in patient milder form. Milder form is very difficult in the many cases, and particularly for Fabry disease also.After the treatment start and then monitoring, as you know, we discussed about the monitoring rely on the combination of clinical assessment, laboratory test, biomarkers, and imaging, and several other factors. Biomarkers and ADA drug assay lack standardization. Actually, the Alpha, and Beta, or [inaudible 00:03:19] Fabry disease, different ADA-titled measurement. Also, the patient experience between clinical visit, ERT infusion is under-reported.We discuss today two topics, two disease. Alpha-mannosidosis is very rare. In Japan, only few cases, and caused by the deficiency of Alpha-mannosidase, an accumulation of mannose-rich oligosaccharides and inheritance of autosomal-recessive. Age of onset is a very early period and younger period, adult period. Incidence approximately is very rare, 1:500,000.There are diseases we don't know exactly. If you have a treatment, maybe your incidence is much increased, and severe or attenuated [inaudible 00:04:09]. Alpha-mannosidosis is still a new disorder, and must differentiate from Mucopolysaccharidosis.On the other hand, the Fabry disease I think is very common. There are many discussion already in the past 20 years. Deficiency of a-Gal A, accumulation of Gb3⁵­­ or Lyso-Gb3, many other glycoprotein, which a terminal of a-Gal A, and X-chromosome. This is very important X-chromosomal inheritance. In case of this, and usually, female does not affect, but in case of Fabry, more of female also involved.First symptom, imagine at any age. Then incidence about 1:40,000-1:60,000. But depending on the country, as you know, classical form, about 1:40,000. Recently, after the newborn screening, late onset, very high incidence. About 90% of it—actually, we carried out a newborn screening in Japan—90% are late onset. But the clinical variety, so many clinical varieties, so incidents here, 1:3,000-1:4,000, something like that. Now, using the Alpha-mannosidosis and Fabry disease as an illustrative example, we will explore these disorders.

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman dig into Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy, a 33 page blueprint that reads less like a sober policy document and more like a crypto fascist love letter to white nationalist demographics, spheres of influence, and an American retreat from the postwar liberal order. They break down what it means for NATO, Europe, Russia, China, and why no one in their right mind should ever again trust the United States as a “steady partner” when policy swings on whatever enriches one deeply corrupt old man and his oligarch friends. From there, the guys wade into the Netflix grab for Warner Bros and the rival Ellison–Kushner–Saudi play, talking about how tech money, oil money, and propaganda ambitions are fusing into one giant content machine that cares a lot about control and very little about art. Then it is on to FIFA inventing a fake “Peace Prize” to flatter Trump, the Queller pardon that turned into an open air quid pro quo tantrum, and Marjorie Taylor Greene's sad little image rehab tour on 60 Minutes.

Have the shorter, darker days of fall and winter ever left you feeling sluggish, down, or simply "blah"? Today, we are discussing seasonal affective disorder with Craig Sawchuk, PhD, LP, a clinical psychologist at Mayo Clinic. He details how the seasonal pattern often presents as "hibernation syndrome"; explores the characteristics that increase vulnerability to SAD; and covers the effective and unique evidence-based treatment for SAD: bright light therapy.

Will the US and Iran always be at odds? What is the history of their feud? Weren't the countries allies under the Shah? And today, what's the chance that negotiations will resume after the 12 Day War earlier this year? And why has the Iran file always been one of the most toxic and divisive issues in Washington foreign policy circles? To find out the answers to these questions and more, Jane - who has analysed and tracked the Iran file for two decades - quizzes an expert, author and friend, Dalia Dassa Kaye, whose new book ‘Enduring Hostility' explores the history of U.S. policy towards Iran based on interviews with the most important DC insiders from rcent U.S. administrations. Not many people realise it, but virtually every U.S. administration since Carter has tried diplomacy with Iran. They've also always tried various forms of pressure - especially sanctions - and at times threats of military attack. Why, then, do the U.S. and Iran keep circling around the negotiating table despite seeing each other as archenemies? What happened to the JCPOA and will there be another nuclear deal? Or are we more likely to see another round of war between Iran and Israel? Jane and Dalia explain it all here just before they both head to Qatar for a bunch of serious discussions about mediation efforts.

In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined by Heiko Nitzschke, Germany's special envoy for the Horn of Africa, to discuss whether and how Europe needs to adapt its approach towards the Horn of Africa. While Europe used to act in relative sync with the U.S. in Africa, this is increasingly less the case. Meanwhile, numerous other powers, mostly from the Middle East, are pursuing their own objectives. Amid all this, how does Europe avoid going it alone in the Horn of Africa region? And, amid these shifts, is Europe rethinking longstanding policy ideas around development, multilateralism and mediation?This episode is produced in partnership with the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung.For more, check out our Horn of Africa page.

In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Professor Tara Renton, a globally recognized expert in orofacial pain, to explore the nuanced world of facial pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction, and migraine disorders. Together, they unpack why so many patients suffer from persistent facial, jaw, or head pain despite “normal” scans and what magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can reveal that traditional imaging might miss. They also dig into local anesthetic reactions, the limitations of pain scales, and how to distinguish between healthy vs. unhealthy pain. . Takeaways Professor Renton explains how magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can detect nerve irritation that typical MRIs may miss, especially in TMJ and facial pain cases. You'll hear how migraine-related nerve dysfunction can present as jaw pain, facial burning, or unexplained dental sensitivity without classic migraine symptoms. They explore how patients with conditions like mast cell activation may react to preservatives or delivery mechanisms in numbing agents, even if allergy tests are negative. The conversation questions whether traditional 1-to-10 pain rating tools capture the lived experience of chronic nerve or facial pain and what alternatives might help. Dr. Bluestein and Professor Renton discuss how to recognize pain that signals normal healing versus pain that points to long-term nerve dysfunction or central sensitization.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression triggered by reduced sunlight during the fall and winter months, disrupting the body's circadian rhythm, serotonin levels, melatonin production, energy, mood, and sleep. Symptoms include low mood, fatigue, increased sleep and appetite, difficulty concentrating, and a sense of heaviness that lifts as spring returns. Effective treatments include bright light therapy, CBT, medication when needed, consistent routines, exercise, outdoor exposure, and community or spiritual support. Natural and alternative approaches—such as Vitamin D, omega-3s, herbal supports, dawn simulators, red/infrared light, thermal therapy, aromatherapy, improved nutrition, and creative or social engagement—can complement clinical care and help stabilize mood during winter.Because SAD affects the entire person—mind, body, and nervous system—many benefit from chiropractic care, posture correction, massage, craniosacral therapy, acupuncture, breathwork, and cold/contrast therapy, all of which help regulate tension, improve sleep, enhance breathing, and restore balance to the autonomic nervous system. Integrating physical, emotional, and spiritual practices—such as breath-prayer, embodied posture, Scripture reflection, and daily routines of light—can ground hope and resilience. With the right support, SAD is a highly manageable condition, reminding us that emotional winters are temporary and that the light always returns.Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher talks about SAD!
