Everyday Dementia Guide

23. Is this normal? Inappropriate Comments and Questions


Listen Later

We're continuing the series here on Everyday Dementia Guide about what’s normal and expected when living with dementia versus what’s a problem. Sometimes it can be hard to recognize and label what behavior you are seeing until someone points it out to you. When my family was supporting my dad, we didn’t know what we were supposed to expect and what was coming next, and what we should try to avoid, and neither did the professionals we consulted. We’re going to go through what to do if you start hearing inappropriate comments and questions.

In this episode:

  • Is it normal to lose the social filter?
  • Do beliefs change as dementia progresses?
  • How to support your loved one and yourself through awkward moments?

Resources: 

  • Want to ask your specific questions or just talk through one of the issues you're facing? Book a FREE Dementia Guide Consultation - 30 mins, Zoom or phone

 

What did you think of the tips? We'd love to hear from you!
