[quote=Anonymous]It was so frustrating that even experts like my mom’s neurologist was pushing for her to see a therapist to deal with her symptoms (paranoia that my dad was cheating) even though it was becoming obvious that she had some form of dementia. The mental health symptoms in more common dementia happen much further along the Alzheimer’s disease trajectory. So once they are seen, it is obviously due to Alzheimer’s. But with FTD, since the main markers for Alzheimer’s like dementia don’t happen until later, and all you see is mental health issues, they have no idea how to deal with it. [/quote]
