People with Alzheimer’s are irritableÂ
Those who live with someone with Alzheimer’s are scared by this myth. Some people say that patients with Alzheimer’s are aggressive and irritable… Well, it might be a grain of truth in this myth, but the words used are definitely misleading.
Because Alzheimer’s causes changes in personality, some patients become more irritable than usual. But it’s important to understand that not all patients have this in common. The owner of By Your Side Home Care, Scott Knoll, says that they take care of many Alzheimer’s disease patients, and the thing they have in common is frustration.
Frustration comes due to memory loss and confusion, so if your loved one has Alzheimer’s, try to remain calm when he/she experiences mood swings.
