Dementia Caregiver Support for Christians: Tips for Alzheimer’s & Dementia Caregivers to Manage Stress, Prevent Burnout & Handle Difficult Behaviors

134. Debunking The Myth That Dementia Is A New Disease


Listen Later

Are you aware of how societies have perceived dementia throughout history? This episode offers a compelling look into the historical context of dementia, providing insights that are seldom discussed on most platforms.

 

The term "dementia" isn't new—its roots trace back over centuries, and its history is as rich as it is complex. Contrary to common belief, dementia isn't a modern condition; it has been recognized under various guises throughout history, even before Alzheimer’s disease was defined in the early 20th century. 

 

This episode serves as a reminder that dementia care is not just about managing symptoms but understanding the historical and social context that shapes how we care for loved ones today. 

As we learn from the past, we can improve our approaches and attitudes toward dementia, making caregiving a more supportive and manageable experience.
