[quote=Anonymous]Extreme anxiety and depression is part and parcel of growing old and cognitive decline. I have seen the fear set in among my elderly relatives. How do you combat that? You do it by making sure they are exercising, they are interacting with other people and that they are doing chores. They need to get up early and have a routine for at least the first 4 hours of their day. Ask them to help you out when you are doing something. Include them to be active participant in domestic chores. And yes, you need to ignore them by listening to music. [/quote]
