Early signs of dementia 

You start to forget things easier

Forgetting things frequently is not a good sign at all, while it might be a lack of general vitamins and minerals, a check-up would do more good than harm, early signs of dementia is forgetting things and repeating questions, especially shorter memories, only when it progresses does the person start forgetting very important things like their family members and important life events and dates.

Your everyday life seem harder to do

Slowly what you are used to doing every day, becomes such a hard task ahead and a difficult job to do, mundane tasks like drinking water, taking your pills, and taking out the trash, suddenly seem like a chore you cannot focus on doing.
