I Have Dementia

I am a person living with dementia. Whether I have been given a formal diagnosis or I’m concerned about my cognitive health, I could be living with dementia.

You’ve likely been worried and anxious about the changes you’re seeing in yourself. Now that you’ve been diagnosed, know that there are education and resources to support you. If you’ve just been diagnosed with dementia, you may need some time before sharing the news – or you may want to talk about it right away. Dementia impacts your cognitive, emotional, physical and social abilities. Understand how these changes can affect you and know how you can prepare and adjust accordingly to live well with dementia
