Dementia Download Episode 2 out now! 🧠✨

This episode is all about emotions. Some emotions can be caused by changes in the brain brought about by dementia itself. We also discuss emotions brought up on the diagnosis journey with people who have lived experience, and some of the ways to cope with it with a Clinical Psychologist.
