While living in a safe world in which they had given up on their own possibilities and experienced narrowing, they were unable to give up and harbored regret, anger, resentment, and feelings of absurdity. We believe that this study will help us understand the experiences of people in the early stages of dementia and contribute to providing nursing care that is more tailored to the individuals involved.
