ABSTRACT
Conversion disorder is rare, but when it affects a young woman on the verge of adulthood, it can be devastating. The intent of this article is to encourage others by describing the success that psychiatry and alternative medicine can offer to patients with conversion disorder and to emphasize the value of nursing as a part of that team. This article will explore the attitude change in both staff and patient that was needed to achieve the ultimate goal of wellness.
