Hi Chaimaa, thank you for your question. This is the same as functional neurological disorder (FND), where unconsciousness psychological issues create neurological signs and symptoms. There is a wealth of information online; a good website we use and direct patients with FND to is neurosymptoms.org. I hope this helps :)
