In this episode of the Seizure Turnaround podcast, poet and advocate Matina Alexis shares her profound journey of dealing with functional seizures, also known as PNES, and how writing became a crucial tool in her recovery. Matina discusses the challenging process of getting diagnosed, the traumatic events in her life, and her path to uncovering deeply repressed childhood traumas through therapy and trauma dreams. She also highlights the role of her poetic work, 'The Softest Blade,' in helping her navigate and articulate her pain, ultimately leading to personal growth and transformation. This episode provides valuable insights into the complexities of functional seizures and the healing power of creative expression.
