Could i have alzeihmers at 22?

No: Even very early onset Alzheimer's doesn't come on in this way. There are other illnesses, but most people at your age who think they are becoming demented are actually depressed or dysthymic. You'd do well to have a full physical exam, assessment of your emotional state and life situation, and some basic labs including thyroid
