Dementia Sign #10: Difficulty Adapting
If someone hasn’t prepared themselves to navigate their dementia properly, they may have a hard time adapting to the process. When a person begins forgetting things and losing their items, it makes them uncomfortable. When they can’t remember the faces of their loved ones, they begin to feel afraid.
This is made harder by the fact that people with dementia have a hard time following instructions and conversations. They may not be able to understand the directions that lead them back home, or even where they live. This might make them hesitant to explore new things and make them dependent on routines.
