When to consider Lifestyle Changes

• I don’t like asking my family for more help.
• Chores and errands such as food shopping and cleaning take longer and are more tiring.
• Overall maintenance of my home is becoming more and more difficult.
• I worry about winter, bad weather, loss of utilities in storms and so on.
• I’m having more difficulty going up and down stairs both inside and outside my home.
• My neighborhood is changing.
• My family doesn’t live in the area anymore.
• Sometimes I don’t make doctor’s appointments. It’s too difficult to get there.
• I’m considering giving up driving. It makes me anxious when I know I have to go out.
• I’m overwhelmed by the numbers of medications I must take and how and when to take them.
• I feel isolated and lonely.
• I rarely leave my home anymore.
• I don’t entertain friends at more home or visit them as I used to.
• If something happens to me in my home, no one would know.
• I’m afraid to remain alone, but I’m not sure what my options are.
