Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) are sudden and involuntary episodic events, which cause an alteration in normal functioning and a reduction in self-control; they are associated with motor, sensory, mental or autonomic manifestations [1,2]. Although they are similar to epileptic seizures, they are not caused by epileptogenic activity in the brain. PNES are categorized as functional neurological disorders (FND)/conversion disorders within the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) [3].
