Individuals diagnosed with dystonia commonly experience symptoms that affect more than how the body moves. The impact of dystonia can go far deeper than motor symptoms and may affect a person’s emotional and mental health. On and every day remember that it is OK to ask for help to address your non–motor symptoms. https://dystonia-foundation.org/living-dystonia/mental-health/
