This book explores the concept of dementia as an existential threat to those diagnosed and to their carers. The authors highlight how dementia not only gradually erodes our most fundamental abilities, but how it does so at a time of life when the resources of individuals, couples, and families are already stretched. While many people who are living with dementia speak out increasingly about the services they receive and the need to change public attitudes, others find it harder to acknowledge their condition and may search for long-dead parents or cling to their previous identities. This book draws on examples from clinical practice to argue that all of these responses represent attempts to regulate emotional distress and to create a psychological equilibrium in the face of the inexorable decline of dementia. Finally, it sets out new ways of intervening to boost psychological resources and so support people in facing the existential threat of dementia.
