Summary:

Lorraine cannot use her right arm, which hangs limp by her side during the interview. The problem has persisted for several weeks. She believes the symptoms began about the time she lost her temper with her infant son. She does not believe, however, there is any connection between her arm and the incident. This training title highlights the major symptoms of Conversion Disorder (Functional Neurological Symptom Disorder) with weakness or paralysis (example of conversion symptoms being secondary to an unacceptable impulse).
