A neurological condition where someone has difficulty or confusion about which side of their body a sensation is coming from or where their hands and feet are located.
From Greek dys- (bad) + cheir (hand), a rare neurological term describing impaired awareness of body position and laterality.
People with dyschiria might touch their left arm when asked to touch their right, or feel a sensation on the left side of their body but perceive it as the right—it's a genuinely disorienting neurological mix-up.
