Dealing with unknown

I am 61 years old and was diagnosed 4 years ago after a number of years refusing exam. My symptoms are primarily tremor related as of now. I’m really having a hard time dealing with the unknown future. I’m trying mindfulness. But I still have bad anxiety and I’m terrified of dementia

  1. Hi I can understand why you are scared, this is a lot to deal with. It must be so hard to not know what the progression of Parkinson's will be like for you. I am sending over an article from one of our advocates who shares how she deals with anxiety, I really hope this can help you.
