Jordan Peterson is continuing to recover at home after a prolonged and severe illness that was finally diagnosed by doctors, with his daughter saying the past year has been “unbelievably hard” on the family.

In a detailed video update posted to YouTube on Saturday, Mikhaila Fuller said the 63-year-old clinical psychologist and author has been suffering from complications related to a prior neurological injury that has recently triggered a recurrence of a condition known as akathisia.

Akathisia is a disorder associated with extreme physical and psychological distress, in which those affected feel an intense and uncontrollable need to move.

“Dad’s been suffering from an old neurological injury that’s more recently been causing akathisia,” Fuller said, adding the condition is “the worst thing I’ve ever seen anyone go through.”

She said Peterson’s condition worsened in recent months.

“He’s still been really sick, and he got worse over the last few months,” Fuller said, explaining why the family delayed sharing a more detailed update publicly.
