Does Alzheimer's Disease run in families?!
Question: My grandmother has it.
My dad has had mental health problem for years.
I often feel confused, and I often forget what I'm doing, as I'm doing it.
Is this normal? I'm only 19.

Alzheimer's Disease is genetic. If you feel confused and forgetful, it doesn't mean you have it. An early onset is usually diagnosed in your 30's so it's highly unlikely that you have it or will get it just because it's genetic. I have a link you might enjoy reading up on about the disease.
Well alzheimer disease is genetic so you could have it but hopefully you dont. It can also be caused by birth complication, malnutrition during infancy, if your mother got sick with flu while she had you. If any of those symptoms fit then you might have it but hopefully you dont.
you are too young to be thinking about alzheimers but you should consider that you have mental health issues. Such as: a form of depression or anxiety and these can be treated with medication. You should ask your family physician for suggestions maybe a psychiatrist. I have a hormone imbalance in my brain and with medication I am now fine. But yes Alzheimers is genetic but the research is happing fast so Hopefully by the time you have to worry about it there will be answers and you won't fall prey to it.
not at 19, but yes altzimers is herditary. new science has found many things that are preventative, like tumeric. if you really feel like your memory is that bad i would see a doc & find out whats up.
See memory improvement, and Alzheimer's, in sections 41, and 29, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris and maximise your chances of avoiding it. Anger management is addressed in section 4.
