Hi My Husband Had A Recent Manic Violent Psychotic Episode

Hi my husband had a recent manic violent psychotic episode he has been in ( all prescribed) Ritalin long term methadone for back pain oxynorm / pain and diazepam for sleep . I was always concerned he was maybe not ADHD as in the drugs he was so hyper he had to take handfuls of Valium to even get some sleep .... After the serious violence ( he had also been drinking ) his psychiatrist immediately changed his meds to lurisadone and oxynorm ( others were discontinued) I am so worried thus might be also wrong as all he does now is sleep I thought maybe it was because the dexamphetamine was discontinued but I worry he can't even communicate after one week ... He could not communicate before either with his hyperactivity on Ritalin always went off on different tangents n unfocused But now he is in a zombie like state ???? Please I need something I get no feedback from his psychiatrist except to say he is frustrated n perplexed trying up diagnose my husband ?????
