Just got diagnosed today with early onset dementia. I don’t want to be so far gone or drugged up to be functional. I would like to be a nurse for at the least the next ten years to help people. I would i don’t know what they call it nowadays but die with some at least dignity? Also if you have mental problems and are thinking about it in the US dial 988

    I’m with you OP.

    I have no desire to remain animated myself past the point when my quality of life isn’t worth the time. All I’ll say is you should make the best decision for you. It’s your life. It’s your time. It’s your health.
