Answer:

Alzheimer's disease

Explanation:

"Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease that impairs thinking and memory. It was described by Dr. Alois Alzheimer in 1906. He noted changes in the brain of a patient who experienced cognitive decline prior to death. He found clumps and fibers, now called amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. An additional characteristic of the Alzheimer’s brain, which is now noted, is decreased communication between neurons in the brain.

What prompts the onset of Alzheimer’s disease is not well understood. However, it is clear that Alzheimer’s often progresses from a mild to moderate to severe stage. At the severe stage, the individual is dependent on others for care.

While most cases of Alzheimer’s occur in individuals aged 60 and older, a rare form of early-onset Alzheimer’s is thought to have a genetic component. Treatment for Alzheimer’s focuses on symptom management and slowing the progression of the disease. In addition, caregivers often require support."

Traveling, change, and falling in love are all considered good stress. Good stress can turn into bad stress. Good stress can also motivate you and keep you going, but if you no longer feel motivated then the good stress can change to bad stress and cause problems.
