We all forget things as we age, but that doesn’t mean we have dementia. Dementia isn’t just one condition - it’s a term that refers to symptoms that cause a decline in mental ability that interferes with daily life. Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia and accounts for 60 to 80 percent of cases. Vascular dementia is the second most common dementia type and occurs after a stroke. Memory loss that worsens over time can be another type of dementia.  Pour plus d'informations et les services locaux des psychiatres locaux à Montréal et à Québec PQ, contactez votre psychiatre local

    People best take accountability for their own health. You should be your own advocate and listen to Dr. Wiggers. Take notes on your stability, anything that triggers you. Get exercise, eat properly, get rest and stay away from stressors.

My license the next day if I didn’t have the note you said you weren’t qualified on a sticky note and gave it to an office person to give to me so now I just lost my job , lost my license and to really let it sink in all this happened was because I went for help got the appropriate help you even said the situation that they went far too extreme and there’s no mental health or substance abuse disorder ?
