A sound mind and a strong memory are what each of us hopes for in old age.
However, the human mind fades over time, so it sometimes seems to us that among the elderly there are only old and angry senile people.
Let's figure out what warning signs should alert you right now.
Signs of cognitive decline
The first warning sign is a loss of interest in new things. A person does not feel the urge to learn other languages, does not want to acquire a new hobby or read new books.
The thing is that the more we load the brain, the more it works and the slower it ages.
The second warning sign is problems with concentration. For example, if a person could watch a movie without any problems before, but now cannot concentrate on it for even fifteen minutes, losing the plot thread - such a moment should not be missed.
Constant complaints about how things were better before and the assurance that there are “only idiots” around can also reveal a person as a future old senile man.
As a rule, people take every statement personally, get offended and believe that the current generation is much worse than the previous one.
