[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're just going through a low point. You're not going to spend the next 10 years at this point. Most likely there will be highs and lows- life is like that. You're just adjusting now, so go with it. Hugs. [/quote] + 1. Dementia is terrible. Physical issues are terrible too but having watched family members go through both, for the younger adult I think the personality changes and loss of mental acuity are the worst. Like after a stroke it was bad enough my mom couldn’t walk, but far worse was that she couldn’t understand that, so she was constantly injuring herself trying and not processing/remembering why. 6 months of extreme awfulness. But within that there were highs and lows. And you get used to them and know to enjoy when you can because the next low will be there soon enough. If you feel like you can’t experience happiness at all - constant lows - then you should seek treatment because that could be depression. [/quote]
