Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, he needs to have a detailed psychiatrist evaluation. From the details it seems so that your concerns may have any organic or underlying psychiatric cause. I suggest Antipsychotic medication like risperidone (Risperdal) and olanzapine (Zyprexa). Coordinated special care like family involvement and education services in a holistic approach. Psychiatric counselling also helps most. I recommend you consult with a local psychiatric doctor.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Arup Majumdar, General & Family Physician
