Not all dementia looks the same, and understanding the differences can make a world of difference for families and carers.
Hereโs a quick, easy guide to the main types:
๐ง Alzheimerโs Disease
The most common form. Often begins with memory loss, confusion, and difficulty with familiar tasks.
๐ซ Vascular Dementia
Linked to reduced blood flow to the brain, sometimes after strokes. Symptoms can appear suddenly or progress in steps.
๐๏ธ Lewy Body Dementia
Known for visual hallucinations, sleep issues, and movement changes.
๐ฌ Frontotemporal Dementia
Affects personality, behaviour, and language. More likely to appear at a younger age.
Each type comes with its own challenges, thatโs why understanding the signs early can help you find the right support.
