5 Good Mental Health? How do we Know? People feel good about themselves. They aren t overwhelmed by emotions, such as fear, anger, love, jealousy, guilt, anxiety or grief. Have lasting and satisfying personal relationships.
6 Good Mental Health means: An individual feels comfortable with other people Can laugh at him/herself and with others Has respect for oneself and for others even if there are differences
7 And People Are Able To Accept life s disappointments Meet life s demands and handle problems when they arise Make decisions on their own Shape a living environment whenever possible, and adjust to it when necessary Ask for guidance when needed
8 Normal Aging People are likely to have the following symptoms. Slower to think Slower to do Hesitate more More likely to look before leaping Know a person but not his/her name Pause to find words Reminded of the past
9 Not Normal Aging Is when a person: Can t think the same Can t do things like before Can t get started Can t seem to move on Doesn t think it out at all Can t place a person Words won t come even later Confused about past versus now Doesn t think and just reacts
10 Maintaining Good Mental Health Requires Attention to lifestyle Social contact Reviewing life from time to time Having people to trust Awareness of what can go wrong Taking steps to resolve problems
11 When Life is Not Going Well - Assessment Have a Therapist listen Assessments are very important may take one or more sessions Chief complaint may be misleading-we dig to help Medication history take time to understand medications Allow a Therapist to get to know the person s history Always share information regarding functional abilities
12 Areas of Assessment Functional assessment Mobility, gait and balance Sensory and language impairments Continence Nutrition Cognitive/behavior problems Depression
13 Parkinson s YOU AREA NOT ALONE! Nearly 50,000 Americans are diagnosed each year. Many times people with Parkinson s are told by their healthcare providers that they have some other disorders or, conversely, people with other disorders are told they have Parkinson s disease because the symptoms are similar. Which can lead to depression and other mental health concerns.

15 Depression Alzheimer s Dementia Adjustment Disorder Anxiety Disorder Grief and Loss
16 Non-Specific Symptoms Confusion Self-neglect Falling Incontinence Apathy Anorexia/weight loss Dyspnea Fatigue Taking to bed
17 An Important but Uncomfortable Conversation Sexual dysfunction Depression Incontinence Musculoskeletal stiffness Alcoholism Hearing loss Memory loss Grief
18 Not Asking For Help Due To Belief that symptoms are due to old age Fear or denial Concern about cost Embarrassment Mental impairment Concern about ill spouse Previous bad experience with health care system Fear of institutionalization
19 Loss Comes in Many Forms: Physical health Social contacts - friends/family die Familiar roles - mother, wife, employed person Financial security - retirement, widowhood Independence and power Mental stability Pets Loss can lead to feeling of depression.

21 Is Someone Depressed? Negative feelings linger, intensify, and often become debilitating A complex illness, creating physical, psychological, and social symptoms Often missed diagnosed Somatic complaints often predominate Many, many drugs should be suspected High suicide rate in elderly males
