Dissociative seizures (DS) are commonly described as involuntary behaviours, movements and sensations which strongly resemble epileptic seizures or syncope but cannot be explained by these or other medical disorders [1–3]. DS are characterised by reduced self-control and typically involve impairment of awareness. The International Classification of Diseases-10 (ICD-10) classified them as dissociative (conversion) convulsions and the recent ICD-11 guidelines place them in the spectrum of ‘dissociative neurological symptom disorder’ [4, 5].
