It’s natural for some changes to occur as a person ages. Regular forgetfulness is one thing, but a sudden increase in memory loss or decrease in thinking skills can be a cause of concern and could be serious.
Senior caregivers, friends and family should keep an eye out for warning signs, which could indicate a mental health concern. Warning signs could include:
- long-term depression
- increased anxiety and paranoia
- hallucinations
- sudden confusion
- social withdrawal
- unexplained fatigue or sleep changes
- noticeable changes in weight and feelings of worthlessness
- thoughts of suicide
