I'm worried because I feel like I'm developing dementia symptoms one by one as I get older.
I'm not that old, but
Maybe it's because I've had a lot to worry about lately and haven't been getting enough sleep.
I don't know if it's a nervous breakdown, but I think I have early signs of dementia.
As work has increased since this September,
During my days off, I couldn't rest or sleep properly, and I had to work and deal with people.
Because of that, I can't remember what I talked about with people.
I saw myself in a daze, perhaps because I couldn't sleep, and not even remembering what I was about to do.
People around you say that you can't sleep, so take a break from work and get some sleep.
I guess I got insomnia because I couldn't sleep.
Even on my days off, I can't sleep properly because my body is tense.
These days, I keep forgetting things due to the repetitive, irregular rhythm.
Dementia at this age... I'm told it's not yet
I'm worried because I feel like I'm in serious trouble.
If it gets worse, I plan to go to the hospital.
The symptoms I've checked below are the ones I've been experiencing recently. Do you think I have early-stage dementia?
First of all, I don't remember the conversation.
A while ago, my boyfriend told me that he had a gift certificate he received from his company.
He told me to keep it for myself so I could use it the next time I go shopping.
But I can't remember that at all.
I remembered receiving the gift certificate because my boyfriend reminded me of it.
I can't remember where I kept that gift certificate...
I start to notice my boyfriend's expressions as I should
I feel pathetic and annoyed at myself for not remembering this.
I also have obsessive compulsive disorder.
Why did this obsessive-compulsive disorder occur?
I don't remember if I turned off the gas stove or unplugged the cord.
I thought I had definitely turned it off, but I can't remember when I leave for work.
So I have to go back in and double check and even take pictures before I can feel at ease.
I can't remember whether I turned it off or not, so it's interfering with my daily life.
I don't really remember whether I did my work or not.
I also developed a habit of checking it over and over again.
After getting scolded by my boss a lot, my self-esteem also went down.
I have a job that involves serving customers.
I couldn't remember explaining it to the customer, so I said it again.
The customer said to me, "You told me earlier."
Seriously... I'm going crazy. I keep forgetting where I put my mind and wondering if I did it or not.
Honestly, I'm worried because it's interfering with my daily life and I think it might be a symptom of early dementia.
Second, I can't remember the word.
This is also the same
My job involves dealing with people.
I tend to talk a lot as I deal with people.
When working, I have to use appropriate dialogue to speak to customers.
I can't think of the word
So there have been several times when I have stuttered and spoken to customers.
From the customer's perspective, they might have thought it was strange, like, "Why is that employee acting like that?"
I wasn't the type of person who couldn't speak well...
At some point, I feel like I can't speak well and I feel confused because I have difficulty conversing.
Also, in the past, when talking with family or acquaintances
There were almost no times when I couldn't think of a word, but these days... I can't think of one.
Every time I talk about it, I think, "Oh, what did they say that for? What was it?"
Oh, there's that, that!! Oh, I can't remember the word;; and the conversation doesn't flow smoothly.
Then I feel frustrated and my family and friends ask me why I stutter so much and why I stop talking.
I'm feeling frustrated... I don't know how to improve this part either.
I was shocked because I couldn't think of anything at the moment.
Third, I can't remember where I left something.
I always take my clothes off when I go to a restaurant.
Hang your clothes and bag on the chair next to you.
But the problem is that you leave it behind when you pay and leave.
A while ago, my mother gave me an outerwear as a gift to wear because it was fall.
I just hung it on a restaurant chair and left it there...
When I got home, I thought about it??? When I tried to take off my clothes, I found out that I had no clothes?
So I called the restaurant and they said the clothes were gone...
I rushed out of the house and went back to the restaurant to look for it, but they said it wasn't there.
In the end, I lost the clothes my mother gave me after wearing them for one day.
I feel sorry for my mother and I'm just so annoyed. I'm sad because I keep losing so many things.
I lost the lipstick my boyfriend gave me as a gift, maybe because I left it in the bathroom while I was doing my makeup.
On rainy days, I always lose my umbrella.
I always leave it behind and can't even remember where I lost it.
When I pay at a convenience store, I put my card in and leave without taking it out ㅠ ㅠ
I don't even know how many times I've had it reissued.
I'm still like this now, but I'm so scared of how I'll change when I get older.
People around me say it's probably due to excessive stress and lack of sleep.
I'm getting more and more scared...
The greatest sense of loss and fear comes when you lose something given to you by someone around you.
I hate myself so much and I'm so annoyed
Honestly, meeting new people is scary now.
I used to be able to have a fluent conversation, but now I stutter like a broken person.
I'm so scared and stressed because I think all of these are early-onset dementia symptoms.
Will I get better if I get treatment at a hospital?
Have other people had this experience like mine?
If you had it, how did you treat it? Will it get better? Please help me.
