Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello Vikram. thanks for this query. How old is your brother? From your narration I get the impression that this behaviour is ongoing for last 6 yrs or so. Have you also noticed your brother to be smiling, muttering, gesturing while alone? Does he gets excessively suspicious of everyone including complete strangers? Does he talks complete illogical or non sensical things? If answers to these questions are affirmative, then he may be suffering from a Psychotic illness probably Schizophrenia. This illness if detected early can be easily managable & treatment with Antipsychotic drugs leads to resolution of psychotic symptoms. So that patient can resume/lead a normal to near normal life. Hence it is imperative on your part to consult a Psychiatrist as early as possible for a detailed evaluation & promptly starting treatment. Good luck & wishing your brother a speedy recovery.
