I was diagnosed with HIV associated dementia after having imaging done due to behavioral and cognitive issues and long term HIV infection. The last five years have been difficult alone, self isolating, now seeing problems completing everyday tasks or just takes a lot longer to get a task done. I cant even get into the bathroom to brush my teeth without getting distracted or getting to that task at hand. and so on. My keyboard typing and handwriting have gone hill. My relationship with people I communicate via text is difficult to manage or complete a conversation. I feel lost. Hoping to find a community I can get some information on services or support. Thank you. Be Kind.
