What are the symptoms of alcohol-induced dementia?

Hello! My uncle has always drunk a lot. I don’t remember seeing him sober in the last ten years. At first it was funny, especially when I was a child, since he used to tell funny stories and songs. But, as the time passed his condition became serious. Since he lives alone I am afraid he will no longer be able to take care of himself. He is no longer able to plan and organize even simple every days activities and he is depressed. I want to take him to see his doctor but he doesn’t want to.
