167 | "I Yelled at My Partner with Dementia — Oops!"

In this original What the Dementia episode, we will discuss why caregivers sometimes lose their cool and yell at their partner living with dementia, even when they know the behaviors are dementia-related. We’ll explore why this happens, what it reveals about both the caregiver and their partner’s needs, and practical ways to reflect, respond differently, and move forward with more patience and curiosity in challenging moments.

This episode will cover:

— Why yelling can happen even when you “know it’s the dementia”

— How to reflect on when and why yelling occurs

— The role of unmet needs for both caregiver and partner

— Practical examples of shifting responses in real situations

— Steps to take after yelling, including reflection and self-care
