Extractions: This paper was written by a student in a course at Bryn Mawr College, and reflects that student's research and thoughts at the time the paper was written. Like other things on Serendip , the paper is not intended to be "authoritative" but is instead provided to encourage others to themselves learn about and think through subjects of interest, and, by providing relevant web links, to serve as a "window" to help them do so. Web links were active as of the time the paper was posted but are not updated. Biology 202 On Serendip Scientists in fields connected to neurobiology and psychiatry remain mystified about the cause of Conversion Disorder. The disorder is characterized by physical symptoms of a neurological disorder, yet no direct problem can be found in the nervous system or other related systems of the body. This fact alone is not unusual; many diseases and symptoms have unknown origins. Conversion Disorder, however, seems to stem from "trivial" to traumatic psychological events and emotions rather than biological events. The extreme symptoms often disappear as quickly as they appear without the patient consciously controlling or feigning them. Thus, Conversion Disorder serves as a significant example of how blurred the conceived demarcated divisions of mind/body/behavior can be. Conversion Disorder is diagnosed solely by its physical symptoms seen in patients. Symptoms can be divided up into three groups: sensory, motor and visceral. Sensory symptoms include anesthesia, analgesia, tingling, and blindness. Motor symptoms may consist of disorganized mobility, tremors, tics, or paralysis of any muscle groups including vocal cords. Visceral functions include spells of coughing, vomiting belching, and trouble swallowing

http://www.rpi.edu/~verwyc/persdid.htm

Extractions: Conversion Disorder Somatoform Disorder : A person complains of physical defect or impairment which has no physiological basis Common Conversion complaints : Selective paralysis, coordination disturbances, vision problems Conversion symptoms typically develop during adolescence or young adulthood. Symptoms often disappear as quickly as they come, and might recur later in another stressful time. Freuds view of conversion disorder: The energy cathected (invested) in a repressed instinct is diverted into sensory-motor channels, impairing functioning Stress + repressed thought is converted into physical symptoms. Through psychotherapy, Freud hoped to uncover the repressed thought and release the energy blocking the sensory-motor systems. Dangers in diagnosing conversion disorder : There may in fact be an underlying neurological disorders, such as an unrecognized stroke which produce similar symptoms. 2 studies done in the 1960s showed approx. 60% of patients given a conversion diagnosis had some underlying organic problem. Malingering Will people fake symptoms of mental illness just to avoid negative consequences elsewhere in their life.

She feels that the marriage to her husband of 27 years deteriorated. He spends very little time with her and she feels quite alone, particularly since the children have grown. She has done some private duty nursing, and her last case was a man who had Lou Gerhig's disease and recently died. Patient will be seen on a regular basis. She was placed on an antidepressant, Prozac, 20 mg. once a day. March 15, 1995

Extractions: Back Back to main Health Information page Definition: Conversion disorder is a psychiatric condition in which emotional distress or unconscious conflict are expressed through physical symptoms. Alternative Names: Hysterical neurosis Causes And Risk: Conversion disorder is one of several types of somatoform disorders, in which psychological problems produce physical symptoms. These disorders have typically been highly stigmatized, with physicians telling patients that the problem is "all in your head." Research on the connection between mind and body is steadily increasing our understanding of these disorders and should reduce the stigma, as it becomes clear that these conditions are real, cause real distress, and cannot just be turned on and off at will. The onset of symptoms in this disorder is usually very sudden and follows a stressful experience. Loss of function, such as in inability to move a limb, may unconsciously symbolize the underlying conflict associated with the experience. Risk factors include a history of histrionic personality disorder or dependent personality disorder Symptoms: The symptoms of conversion disorder involve the loss of one or more bodily functions. These may include blindness, paralysis or the inability to speak. The loss of physical function is involuntary and diagnostic testing does not show a physical cause for the dysfunction.

Extractions: One of the somatoform disorders (but in some classifications called a dissociative disorder), characterized by a symptom suggestive of a neurologic disorder that affects sensation or voluntary motor function. The symptom is not consciously or intentionally produced, it cannot be explained fully by any known general medical condition, and it is severe enough to impair functioning or require medical attention. Commonly seen symptoms are blindness, double vision, deafness, impaired coordination, paralysis, and seizures. Back
