What Causes Auditory Hallucinations And Abusive Behavior In A Person?

needs antipsychotic drug treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Dear, I can understand your concerns for your mother.
The symptoms of hearing abusive and ordering voices, feeling that the voices are "electronic mind control" and not accepting this as abnormal, is fairly suggestive of schizophrenia.
This would need an urgent psychiatric intervention.
Antipsychotic drugs like olanzapine or risperidone needs to be given to her as early as possible.
These drugs are available in injectable forms for those who are not willing to take the drugs orally.
If your mother is not accepting to visit a doctor, I think you should call the local emergency medical services as this a psychiatric emergency. I wish I could help you further; however based on your description, I will strongly recommend you call local emergency service and take if further.
Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask further.
Thanks.
Dr. Shubham Mehta, MD (Psychiatry)
