Doctors note that although Alzheimer's disease is best known as a form of dementia, other pathologies, such as frontotemporal dementia, can also have a devastating effect on the brain, changing behavior, personality and speech.
This was reported by URA-Inform with link to Newsyou.
This type of dementia affects the front and temporal parts of the brain, and its early symptoms often appear in social situations. People with this condition may make inappropriate or inappropriate comments, and may notice that others are behaving themselves “without understanding.”
According to doctors, frontotemporal dementia often causes changes in character, which is explained by a violation of the perception of social norms. Patients may exhibit obsessive behavior, lose tact, become withdrawn or uncharacteristically indifferent.
Early signs include:
— Apathy, unwillingness to engage in conversations.
— Sudden changes in character and mood (for example, bouts of depression).
— Lack of restraint and violation of social norms.

— Repetitive behavior, such as compulsive activity or hoarding.
— Atypical behavior – verbal, physical or sexual.
Experts emphasize, that it is important to recognize these signals in time in order to promptly consult a doctor for diagnosis.
