Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us. I can understand your concern.
Frequent episodes of depression and anger suggest possibility of bipolar disorder.
Asperger disorder at age of 68 is unlikely.
He should be evaluated by a psychiatrist.
I am posting links to find psychiatrist in Brisbane or you can ask your family doctor to refer him to a psychiatrist.
