It’s called SunDowner Syndrome, also called sundowning or late-day confusion, is a group of symptoms that occur in someone with memory loss that can start around late afternoon and continue into the night. It can cause increased confusion, disorientation, anxiety, agitation, pacing and even wandering.
It’s best to keep blinds closed as not to upset people with mental conditions in the afternoon.
