There are a few different signs that may show you aren’t aging properly and could even possibly have dementia. One of the first signs is that you are forgetting recent events and/or information. You might also buy something and then have no memory of doing so or misplace items frequently. Another sign includes repeating yourself over and over again in a short period of time. Finally, you may not know what day or time it is.

Key Takeaways:

• Part of normal aging consists of forgetting certain things, like people’s names.
• If you find yourself forgetting recent events though, this can be a sign of dementia and not just normal aging.
• You may also find that you are repeating yourself over and over within a short period of time.
