The purpose of this article is not to diagnose or predict. It is to help you pay attention. To help you notice when something is shifting. To encourage you to have conversations you might otherwise put off.

If you observe these signs in someone you love, talk to their doctor. Not in a panic, but with curiosity: “We’ve noticed some changes. Can you help us understand what’s happening?”

And then, most importantly: spend time with them. Say what you need to say. Ask what they need to tell you. The greatest gift of noticing is the time it gives you.
