New post on Functional Movement Disorder and Conversion Disorder

My latest blog post addresses Functional Movement Disorder and Conversion Disorder from both a personal and a more impersonal perspective.  I've especially outlined some of the issues with Conversion as a general diagnostic category and the problems with directly equating it with FMD.
The comments are interesting - someone has already asked about rates of diagnosis by gender, which adds another wrinkle to a complex, confusing, and controversial issue.
