What he says about the early beginning of dementia?

Dementia may start long before the signs of old age and dementia occurs so much more dramatic than the one that comes at a later age. To such conclusion the canadian specialist in neurodegenerative diseases Carmela Tartaglia.

In a study published in the journal The Conversation, associate Professor, University of Toronto Carmela Tartaglia writes that personality changes characteristic of dementia, is able to manifest before the appearance of senile wrinkles and gray hair. According to the database accumulated by the canadian Society for the study of Alzheimer’s disease, before the age of 65 years this disease in one form or another, makes itself felt in five percent of the people. In this case, said the academic, despite the fact that the pathological processes leading to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, the same in all ages, the specific manifestations of the disease vary greatly depending on age.

In particular, according to Tartaria, younger patients (under 65 years) often complain of problems with speech – it is difficult to find the words. Also they have difficulty with comprehension of visual information, planning cases. Despite the not-old age, they are experiencing memory problems. The saddest thing is that early dementia is progressing much faster than the one that comes at a later age.

Another aspect of Alzheimer’s at a relatively young age, which mentions Tartaglia, due to the fact that different symptoms of this disease gradually change the personality, easily confused with depression or midlife crisis. Being in the Prime of life, the patient must typically perform many job duties to support a family, to take care of the offspring. But due to increasing forgetfulness and decline of the intellectual potential to do that it is becoming harder.

In such cases, the surrounding are often not able to understand the cause of changes that leads to conflicts and the breakdown of family unions.
