one more thing doctor he was in the same state a week ago when we hospitalised him. There all the
reports were normal like ct scan sugar and othe important test taken by the nurses in emergency ward.
the doctor also was unable to find the reason of his state but was predicting that it maybe because of
liquer and utterly gave instruction to prohibit it. he gave other medecines for depression and anxiety

This sounds like mania (bipolar disorder). your father would need to meet witha psychaitrist and be treated for symptoms. Also he would need weekly therapy sessions
