Jreboll Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Most of us start suffering some degree of dementia with age. I was in my fifties when I started noticing it in myself. My job required me to remember a lot of details so i started getting bouts of anxiety when I couldn't remember certain details. I finally stepped down to a less demanding job. I belong to a group that plays table tennis a couple times a week. It is so amusing when four of us cannot remember the score or who is next to serve. So, yes, we do need support groups.

So how old are you now? In other words, is it nice and ripe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
