Get support for dementia and Alzheimer's from a hotline in Germany

If you’re experiencing a loss of your ability to remember things or think clearly, you’re not alone. In fact, one person develops dementia every three seconds. There are 3 hotlines in Germany that provide support with dementia and Alzheimer's. Contact them if you are noticing the following symptoms:

• Being easily irritated regardless of knowing it’s nothing you would normally get upset about
• Taking longer to complete tasks you perform regularly
• Finding yourself repeating questions when you are asked something so that you can focus better
• Having a hard time finding the right word
• Sudden changes in mood, agitation
• Confusion about place, like getting confused about where you are at the moment
• Wandering or getting lost in neighborhoods you know well
• You become paranoid and feel like everyone is working against you

Dementia and Alzheimer’s could leave you confused and scared. You might have many questions about what your future might look like. This is perfectly understandable. The symptoms you have been experiencing seem to be changing your life and yourself.

You might feel the need to maintain your self-sufficiency as long as possible. Reaching out to volunteers from a helpline that supports with dementia and Alzheimer’s can help you cope with the diagnosis in a healthy and productive way.
