[quote=Anonymous]Everyone thinks they would off themselves because everyone thinks they would be like their normal selves trapped inside a declining brain. But actually that brain is you, so the person still feels like themselves a lot of the time, basically until they get stuck or fall into a “hole.” Like realizing they can’t find the car keys and it’s because the car got taken away five years ago. A lot of care giving is just gently turning people away from holes all day long and helping them feel like themselves as much as possible. [/quote]
