sundowning /sŭn′dou″nĭng/

noun​

  1. A state of disorientation and agitation that sometimes occurs in the late afternoon or evening in people with dementia.
  2. A state of agitation, confusion, or delirium, especially in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease, which begins daily at nightfall and which is alleviated by daylight.
Although more commonly seen later in the day, Sundowning can occur at any time of day. Mostly triggered by confusion or agitation. Time of day really has nothing to do with it.
