Mums just been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. We are in the early stages but she also has physical poor health. One of the main issues we experience is her negative behaviour. She is constantly needing things and nothing is good enough. She seems to sabotage the most simple of tasks when she’s in a bad mood (which is most of the time) and says nasty things to try and hurt or generate a reaction. What I find strange is that her behaviour is an exaggeration of her previous behaviour. She has always been selfish and manipulative but does dementia make this worse? There are very obvious behaviours of memory loss and confusion but the negativity can be off the chart. I just wondered if other people had experienced similar.
