Hi all, I’m usually in the anxiety and panic forum. I need to settle a thought I have about dementia. I have been working in the dementia unit and I have learnt that some have long term memory. There is a guy who always asks to go home and is looking for his car every single night. I don’t know how he is In the day as I only work evenings. I have had a very tough life and mentally have been very ill for most of my 20s and some of my 30s and I’m worried if I got dementia (both my grandmothers had and have it) I’m worried what if I go back to a time when I wasn’t well.. I really don’t know how dementia works but it has given me anxiety, I have worked so hard to get to where Iam now and overcome so many battles, I don’t want dementia to stuff that up. Any thoughts?
