1 out of 10 of us will suffer from dementia in our future

10/10 of us will die and suddenly lose everything.
Losing your mind right before you die is like gradually immersing yourself in cold water as opposed to diving in it.

What if dementia blasts in and you start to forget that you wanted to kill yourself?

WOWWWW BRO IM SO BLACPILLED UGHHHHH EVERYTHING IS BLACKPILLED, I'M BLACKPILLING MYSELF DUUUUDE

I look after my grandfather who has dementia, it's an utterly terrible illness and I dread for when/if my mother gets it

>mother used to be a very active person
>smokes 2 packs every day for 40 years
>has a stroke, nearly dies
>now she has short term memory loss, sometimes she's exactly as bad as 10 Second Tom from that Adam Sandler movie
>her sanity and mood varies hour to hour
>some moments she is completely lucid but forgetful, other moments she reverts to the mind of a 3 year old
Quit your unhealthy habits. Do it now, not later.

because everyone got recommended his shit on youtube

faggots
once you are senile all your favorite games will become new again

>reverts to the mind of a 3 year old
Tell me more about this. I'm interested

Medical science will take care of that in the future. Plus we as a species are absorbing a lot more information then our grandparents did just by technology use. The sharper you keep your brain the less likely you are to get dementia. Alzheimers will start to go away.

>user, could you please turn on the sun again? I'm cold. I wasn't cold before....
>Could you please tell the cat to excuse itself from my room? I've talk to it for a while but it doesn't seem to listen to me.
She loses the ability to understand subtlety, nuances, subtext, irony and any form of complex language. She forgets how to read.
And just like says, she completely loses any filter between her thoughts and mouth. She will call people ugly, crippled, fat, niggers, etc to their face because she can't understand the repercussions anymore. Like a small child.

someone post that comic about the guy's wife

Sounds terrible dude. Sorry.

She did this to herself, we've always been trying to make her cut down on the smokes. She'd pretend to try but never make a serious effort.
And both of my younger siblings smoke, despite watching this happen. I don't understand why anybody would do this to themselves.

unlikely. eating poop pills will save us all. mark my words

overrated as fuck album

>will
>not being mad yet
What is Zig Forums now, reddit?

I'm never going to get dementia
>tfw god tier memory
It feels good wowing people by remember all kinds of the stupid shit. My brother gets impressed that I can recall every plot point from all the movies or shows we saw as a kid; I never lose anything even if I toss onto the floor; I can easily remember all the books I've read; recall every place I've been with great clarity; remember almost every conversation I've had (it's a little creepy to some people when I mention an obscure detail they told me in passing years ago); remember all the stupid facts and information you pick up from school, quiz shows, observations and infographics—great if you want people to think you're knowledgeable. It's no photographic or perfect mind you: I suck and names and dates often slip from my mind and my sense of direction used to be pretty bad—it seems more abstract stuff like numbers is hard for me to remember. My family members have shit memories though, my brother for example will forget the same piece of information over and over again, and my parents forget all kinds of things: even something simple like picking up whole milk instead of semiskimmed. Having a good memory also really helped in school. Honestly, just a very convenient disposition.

That's how I feel too. I've been trying to get my mom to quit for years, but she never seems to put in the effort. The fear of being right is the worst, there's no "I told you so", I don't want to be right about it. That's terrible that your family didn't even seem to learn from it. That's the worst, sheesh.

>Science will fix it, trust me bro
Stop coping, we're all gonna die

Always has been

cure for alzheimers != immortality. better accept your death now and live your life.

We tried to take smokes away from us. First she thinks it's a joke but then she gets FUCKING PISSED. You know, the kind of blindly furious that junkies become when they need their fix. Starts throwing everything in her reach at us and yelling.
Once we cave in and give her smokes, she immediately calms down. Later, if we try to tell her how she acted, guess what? Doesn't remember a thing.

I referenced 10 Second Tom but this is not a joke. There have been times before when she asked a question twice within the same minute, I gave the same answer both times and her reaction was completely opposite each time.

>user, where was the thing that was here?
>I threw it away
>Don't throw things out user, you could have [blah blah blah]

>user, where was the thing that was here?
>I threw it away
>Oh whatever, it was useless anyway

I wish I was joking. There's no dignity in growing old and senile.

Bitch we haven't even cured going blind or having heart attacks. You think we're even close to solving something as complex as cognitive decline?

Yes.

Yes and when we die it will somehow not be some fucked up disease, none of those will exist anymore

You're stupid. That tech isn't even going to be ready in the next 100 years

in a lot of cases, demented people don't want to live long because it fucking shit being old and not having a spark of interest in your mind. My gf works in the field and comes across more patients wanting to die (despite that they're all well and taken care of most of the time). There are times were your brain just collapses and dopamine and serotonin will be hard to come by.

the algorithm gods deemed him worthy

That's sooner then I would have thought. by the time i'm 120 I'll get to die without alzheimers.

you can still get it regardless of how smart you were previously, though you might be less likely
