Hi
Dad and I are finding conversation with Mum is like pulling teeth....very one sided. Has anyone else found general conversation a problem?
Haven't seen anyone else mention it. As Mum is still 'early stages' I wasn't sure if this was common or not?
We've always found (in the good old days) that Mum never shut up and it's really bothering both us and we wondered if she's depressed rather than it actually having anything to do with the AD?
They're due back from their holidays today and Dad said that an Irish couple tried to join them and she told Dad that she wanted to leave the bar they were in (saying 'they'll think I'm weird') This is so unlike Mum....Dad and I are the antisocial ones She's always been so chatty.
I'm wondering if she's too worried to talk in case she says something 'odd' and I'd prefer to try to put her mind at rest if that's what's wrong....or is this a normal symptom of AD?
Thanks for any advice!
Mandy
