Dementia and Anxiety: What’s the Connection?

Показать описание
Anxiety is a common psychiatric disorder affecting individuals at any age, but can be more devastating to those of advanced age, particularly older adults diagnosed with dementia. Anxiety and dementia together can significantly reduce a person’s quality of life and make quality care more complicated to provide. The two disorders are also associated with a higher likelihood of placement into a senior care center.

Dementia and anxiety. I just watched the Presidential debate and dementia and anxiety adequately describe both candidates. Trump was demented and agitated. Snd zbiden was aanxious and verbally unclear. Horrifying! Our country deserves better.
