A member asked:
I'm excited by watching tv or thinking deeply about something but still could i have caused myself frontal lobe dementia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nope : Fortunately that's not how we get frontal lobe dementia. So its OK to concentrate on TV and think deeply about things, Just don't text and drive.
