Hi newbie struggling with anxiety

Hi.

I’m struggling with anxiety at the moment. My mums not particularly old yet she’s showing signs of Alzheimer’s. My gran had this nasty disease years ago and now my mum seems to be going the same way, she forgets things that were just said, sometimes in town shopping she can’t remember where a certain shop is and when she went away with her sister and sent a postcard she used our address but put a postcode in from a house 20 yrs ago she lived in before I was even born.

It’s a worry and it’s also made me realise despite my age I’m still heavily dependent on her. So I need to make some changes there so I don’t end up in the position where I can’t cope doing things myself.

Any advice on how to best cope with this situation? My mum doesn’t notice a problem I’m the only one who does. I miss being a child everything felt perfect back then.
