Changes in behavior

Changes in behavior involve alterations in an individual’s typical actions, emotional responses, and social interactions. This can manifest as increased irritability, agitation, depression, or withdrawal from social activities. Individuals may exhibit uncharacteristic mood swings, aggression, or apathy. Changes in behavior can also include compulsive actions and personality shifts. These changes are often associated with neurological conditions, mental health disorders, and cognitive impairments, impacting an individual’s relationships and daily functioning.
