Your anger may arise from having the disease or from daily frustrations. The best way to deal with your anger is to acknowledge that what you are feeling is anger and that it's okay. Try to specify who or what is making you angry. Your local chapter of the Alzheimer's Association can refer you to counselors and support groups . Alzheimer's creates many challenges in your daily life, and a support group allows you to hear how others have coped or are coping with similar situations.
Support groups are safe places to talk openly about difficult issues and feelings.
And you may find that other group members will become a great source of comfort and encouragement. To find a support group near you, contact your local chapter of the Alzheimer's Association. Inc. All rights reserved.
