Alzheimers Experiment

Other then dementia, are there medical conditions that can mimic alzheimers? Please only serious EDUCATED answers.

There is a lot of mental illness in my family. My paternal grandpa was an alcoholic, had dementia and died from Alzheimers. Two of his sisters, as well as his parents, all suffered from mental illness and killed themselves at different times. Sometimes I worry for my dad, who is 50 now. What are things I can do to reduce getting Alzheimers or dementia? I’m 18 now.
