I'll keep this short. Does anyone know a doctor or treatment for alcohol induced dementia? My dad has got dementia literally out of nowhere from alcohol abuse.

He bent his dendrites so hard for so long they can no longer bend back to shape so the neurons can communicate properly. If he tapers off drinking and quits it won't get worse. However, sudden stopping of drinking for an alcoholic can damage the brain.

As far as reversing the process, I'm not sure. cognitive exercises are usually the best course of action. Things like jigsaw puzzles for instance.

He most likely has alot vitamin deficiencies including B12, folate, and thiamine. Thiamine is probably the most likely culprit for the dementia. He should probably go to a doctor to get IV injection of it for most benefit, but if he doesn't want to I guess you could try oral.
