5 Strange Dementia Symptoms (And How to Handle Them)
Manage episode 502928189 series 3465931
Careblazer, have you ever looked into your loved one’s eyes and heard something like, “You’re not my wife” or “Someone’s stealing from me”? It is confusing, scary, and can break your heart.
In this video, I walk you through 5 of the strangest dementia symptoms that many caregivers are not expecting and explain what is really happening in the brain when they show up. I share real Careblazer stories, science-backed explanations, and practical strategies you can start using today to help you feel less overwhelmed and more prepared.
These symptoms do not mean your loved one has bad intentions. They are the result of brain changes. While we cannot always make them go away, we can respond in ways that calm the moment and protect our own well-being.
