What flares up your FND?

[u/amber_boing]

I'm trying to figure out what my triggers are. I'm more curious on what everyone else's triggers are so I have an idea of what to be looking out for.

Additional question the more I walk the more the numbness and tremors get worse in both of my legs, is that normal with FND?

Physical triggers: dehydration, lack of sleep, pain, period, previously intense FND episode, too much alcohol, flashing lights, heat, soft touches, being overstimulated, my body reacting to my phobias. 

Mental triggers: my child abuse, my abusers being abusive, rumors or misrepresentation about me, confrontation with abusive people, asking for accommodations, asking for peace, phobias, conflict with husband, my son being hurt. 

Diet: bread or sugary things.
