Alzheimer's disease is sometimes referred to as "senile dementia" or "Alzheimer's dementia." It may also be categorized under the broader term "dementia," which encompasses various types of cognitive decline. In some cases, it is informally called "the long goodbye" due to the progressive nature of the disease affecting memory and identity.
