International FND Awareness Day, on April 13, helps people learn about Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). FND is a condition where the brain has trouble sending and receiving signals, causing problems like difficulty walking or speaking, although the brain looks healthy on scans. On this day, people around the world share stories and information to help others understand what FND is and how it affects those diagnosed. This awareness helps build kindness and support for people living with FND, making sure they don't feel alone and receive the help they need.
How to celebrate International FND Awareness Day?
On International FND Awareness Day, you can wear a special ribbon or outfit to show your support. Create colorful posters or drawings and display them at home or school. Talk to your friends and family about FND and share what you know. You could bake cookies or cupcakes and decorate them with a message about FND. It's a great time to watch videos or read stories about people who have FND to understand their lives better. You can also write a kind letter to someone with FND to make them smile. Finally, take a moment to be grateful and supportive.
