Have you ever felt like you were the problem in your family?
Like no matter how hard you tried, no matter how consistently you showed up with your best effort, you were always the one in crisis? The one who “acted out”? The one who got blamed for why things were falling apart?
If that resonates with you, if that sounds familiar in your bones, the first thing I want to say is: I am so sorry. It’s such as a confusing, painful and often lonely place to be. And you’re not alone. But, more importantly, what if I told you… it might not be true? That story you’ve been told, or maybe the one you’ve carried quietly for years; the idea that you were the difficult one, the broken one, the one who couldn’t get it right - what if that story isn’t actually yours? And it never was?
Coming up in this week’s episode of the Stronger Minds Podcast – the plight of the Identified Patient.

Does a strong family history mean that it is inevitable that someone will develop dementia?
No. Not only are these complex conditions where genes are just one component, but international studies like the Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER) give us reasons to be optimistic about the power of lifestyle interventions on dementia risk. In people already at increased risk of dementia, aged 60–77, this multidomain intervention including diet, exercise, cognitive training, and vascular risk management delayed, and in some cases halted, cognitive decline.
In this episode I share what I would optimise if I was in this situation.
