Editing Talk:Psychogenic non-epileptic seizure (section)

== Major update to article ==

Hi all! I’ve made substantial edits to the '''Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures''' article with the goal of improving its structure, clarity, and alignment with current clinical evidence. Changes include:

* Rewriting the lead to reflect PNES as a functional neurological disorder, clarify diagnostic methods (video-EEG as gold standard), and briefly summarize treatment and prognosis.
* Updating the Signs and symptoms and Causes sections to reduce stigma, enhance readability, and better reflect current understanding.
* Revising the Diagnosis section for clinical relevance, replacing the DSM-5 bullet list with concise prose, and clarifying outdated tests (e.g. serum prolactin).
* Rewriting the Treatment section to emphasize psychotherapy and patient education as first-line care, clarify the limited role of medications, and contextualize emerging therapies (e.g. ReACT).
* Expanding Prognosis and Epidemiology using recent studies.
* Improving the Society and culture and Terminology sections to reflect current discourse and sources.

I’ve aimed to keep the tone encyclopedic and accessible while grounding the text in recent systematic reviews, clinical guidelines, and expert consensus.

Further suggestions or improvements are very welcome, especially if you notice areas where additional balance or clarification would help. [[User:Pwoli|Pwoli]] ([[User talk:Pwoli|talk]]) 20:46, 4 May 2025 (UTC)
