REVIEWS: FiNDing Hope
Patrick Price,
Ask A Book Editor
"There’s so much I respected in FiNDing Hope—its rawness, its hope, the visceral depictions of a body out of control, the honest moments of despair, insights inched toward, and then backsliding out of fear and lack of being seen. It’s a tapestry of grief and self-realization that refuses to play by a strictly linear memoir playbook. Anyone facing a FND diagnosis, or really anyone enduring chronic health issues or a medical mystery, will find solace, empathy, insight, and hope in Jocelyn's words."

"The voices of people with FND have long been silent. Jocelyn Bystrom's account of experiencing seizures and movement disorder as part of the condition will resonabte with others who experienced diagnostic delay and disbelief from others. Her story also gives hope to those wondering if improvement from FND is possible and reminds us that there are many different paths to change. "

“Finding Hope is a fantastic read. Like any skilled guide, Jocelyn Bystrom expertly brings us along to experience the ups and downs of what it is like to live with a condition that transcends the perceived space between mental and physical health. This experience can be incredibly isolating and invalidating for individuals trying to navigate their own lives, as well as medical systems that are better set up for more overly simplified origins of illness. Finding Hope advances this discussion, and it should bring hope to those who find themselves in similar circumstances.”
