Yes, this disorder is a behavior condition although this condition is manifesting with neurologic symptoms without an organic cause (functional neurologic disorder). Take care.

A true Conversion Disorder has always been classified as a psychiatric problem. However, often these conditions masquerade as neurological syndromes and may require careful sorting out.
