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.
Hello, I have a 45 yr old nephew who has off & on drug usage problems. Lies continually, thinks more of himself than most others do. Currently homeless but I m helping him with a detox program that he requested and he is staying with me. Seems to believe his lies or it doesn t bother him to lie. Any ideas?
MULTI DISCIPLINARY APPROACH IS NEEDED .BEHAVIOURAL THERAPY IS MOST HELPFUL. OTHERS INCLUDE COGNITIVE AND BEHAVIOURAL THERAPY, MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING, MULTI DIMENSIONAL FAMILY THERAPY HELPS A LOT.
