Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Have Repeated Sniffing, Obsessive, Anger, Paranoid. Symptoms Bipolar Disorder, OCD?
Looking for symptoms of bi polar disorder, ocd, or early onset of alzeihmers. My brother is 69 his behavior is not neccisaryily totally new but just seems more pronounced. Very obsessive, repeated sniffing all the time. Anger and paranoid more pronounced. Only interested in his self. Has lived alone for a very long time.
You classically describe the symptoms of a disorder that is very similar to the one that I have had experience in seeing in my daily practice that is bipolar disorder. I hope this helps if I suggest that you see a psychiatrist to find out how best to help your brother. I am unsure of your locations but would look for local resources to be able to reach out and help your brother.
I hope this helped. Take care and have a lovely day!
