Suggest Treatment For Short Tempered And Abusive Behavior

My father is around 60 years..Since my childhood I have seen him short tempered, getting angry, abusive, jealous, picking up fight with every body and everywhere, humiliating me my mother and my brother. I am married now and somehow with lots of reading, Yoga, meditation,somehow healed myself. Now the problem is my mother failing health, my brothers still struggling to comlete his studies.....All this is further angering my father..and he is continuoulsy torturing them.It is very difficult to reason with my father and make him realise ......He needs some treatment. I dont know what to do about this problem.We cannot leave our father at this age and we cannot live with him either. Is there any way where his treatment can be carried out without his knowing ..whom should we consult in this regards.....Please help?

Dear User,

Thanks for using health care magic.

Unfortunately you can not treat a person against his/her will. In my view if you explain a person properly most of them understand their abnormal behavior after few efforts. You can talk to him in indirect way like what he wanted, how he feel in life, how things can be improved in his view. There are lot more that can be discussed at dining table and there is no reason that we should argue to get results.

There is provision under law which states that a person can be get treated after permission/order form sub divisional magistrate or higher rank officer. For the same you can contact the law enforcing agencies in your area.
In case that seems to be last option you can seek help of elders in family.
