Your neurons stop going through mitosis at the age of 4, so with no neuroplasticity you would have the metal capacity of a four-year-old.
>That being said how important is different experiences shaping us?
<there BO, a way to talk about the brain in a appropriate manner (but less of an important topic)

>>332897
No, but seriously BO.
If you look back at the images of black and white scans of mentally ill people’s brains vs a cartoon happy image then you can tell.
>the switch up is insane
<Probably less people are gonna talk about it though
>don’t ban this one
>Rude towards mentally ill people, at least there smarter then the **pedo**

As an oldbernd I'm horrified by the fact that white matter begins to atrophy at age 35
I'm already on the role to dementia

>>332900
I’m going to sound like one of them /HS/ people but, we probably have the cure for dementia it’s just the government doesn’t want it out

>>332901
Bingo

>>332901
The cure for dementia is your will.
A lot of you don't have the will force to continue learning, you just want to lazy lie on bed, eat hamburgers and consume some magical drug to enhance your mind.
And even if you could cure dementia - what would you brain be remembering? Imagine you live in a house where all the same, you remember where each piece of furniture is, why do you need neuroplasticity for, to memorize it again and again in your daily boring routine from the bed to the toilet?

>>332900
*road, not role ofc
>>332901
the state would lose a lot of money by withholding a cure for dementia while gaining nothing
it creates additional workload for the healthcare system and causes the loss some exbert work hours etc. etc. i don't think they would do such a wasteful thing while gaining nothing. the last two USA presidents also clearly suffer from dementia yet nothing has been done to cure them of it

Fair enough but eventually you will forget how to do even those things or how to swallow etc

>>332933
Yeah, you’re right it was a L conspiracy theory, +the affluent can get dementia too. So you if there is a cure and where not telling anyone then its probably not helping anyone.

Two steps ahead of you!
If you have Alzheimer's and want to create a notebook to help you remember important information and avoid challenging situations, here are some practical and supportive ideas for what you can include:
1. Personal Information
Your full name, address, and phone number.
Emergency contact information (names, relationships, and phone numbers of close family members or friends).
2. Photos of Relatives and Friends
Print clear, labeled photos of your relatives and close friends. Include their names and their relationship to you (e.g., "My daughter, Sarah" or "My best friend, John").
Group photos can also help you recognize people in social settings.
3. Home Information
A photo of your home (front view) with the address clearly written.
A simple map or directions to your home from nearby landmarks.
A list of rooms in your house and their purposes (e.g., "Kitchen: where I cook meals").
4. Daily Routine
Write down your daily schedule (e.g., "Wake up at 7 AM, breakfast at 8 AM, walk at 10 AM").
Include reminders for meals, medications, and important tasks.
5. Important Paths and Locations
Draw or print simple maps of frequently visited places (e.g., the route to the grocery store, park, or doctor's office).
Label landmarks or signs to help you recognize where you are.
6. Memory Aids
Write down key facts about yourself (e.g., "I was born in 1950," "I worked as a teacher," "I love gardening").
Include a short life story or timeline of major events.
7. Emergency Instructions
Write down what to do if you feel lost or confused (e.g., "Stay calm, call my daughter Sarah at 555-1234, or ask for help from a trusted person").
Include a note explaining your condition (e.g., "I have Alzheimer's and may need assistance. Please help me contact my family").
8. Medication and Health Information
List your medications, dosages, and when to take them.
Include any allergies or medical conditions.
9. Comforting Reminders
Write encouraging notes to yourself (e.g., "It's okay to forget sometimes. I am safe and loved.").
Include favorite quotes, prayers, or affirmations.
10. Visual Cues
Use color-coded tabs or stickers to organize sections (e.g., red for emergency contacts, blue for daily routines).
Add symbols or icons to make the notebook easier to navigate.
11. Technology Assistance
If you use a smartphone, include instructions for using GPS or emergency apps.
Write down how to access photos or contacts on your phone.
12. Family Involvement
Ask family members to help you update the notebook regularly.
Include their notes or messages of support.
Example Notebook Layout:
Page 1: Emergency Contacts (with photos and phone numbers).
Page 2: Photos of Family and Friends (labeled with names and relationships).
Page 3: Home Address and Map.
Page 4: Daily Routine and Medication Schedule.
Page 5: Directions to Frequently Visited Places.
Page 6: Personal Story and Key Memories.
This notebook can serve as a comforting and practical tool to help you navigate daily life with more confidence. Keep it in a place where you can easily access it, and consider carrying a smaller version with you when you go out.

wtf neurons replace each other

>>332980
They stay in G0 and do not under go mitosis

>>332900
i wish there were a remedy for this
>>334261
Worst then death is to forget everything. To forget all your memories is to be a living corpse. As if your life fades away when you are still awake. I feel bad for you man, they should make a cure soo
>fuck the defective bioballs
There is still something to be done.

>Your neurons stop going through mitosis
I call BULL

>>334264
Terminal lucidity is shit, SHIT.
Actually forgetting everything would be cooler.

>>332925
Not quite. I would like to use my couch to SLEEP and thus, SATISFY MY SLEEP HYGIENE NEEDS.

>>339976
Agreed as if one last tease that you forgotten everything before you inevitably die.

>>339975
No, that’s how neurons work, that’s what happens when post-mitotic cells go into Growth 0 and no longer have enough centrioles to complete anaphase
