Suggest Therapy For Stress

Hi,
Since last one year my cousin has started doubting his wife's character. He is torturing her. She tried to bear it but now it has crossed limits. He is not talking to any one. He is telling that I have a doubt. I don't believe her. He is not willing to see a doctor.Please suggest.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi.

I understand your concern.

I admire your concern.

The symptoms that have you described is not due to stress. It is psychological illness. Possibility of psychotic illness is most likely.

Doubt, suspiciousness; not talking all are suggesting psychotic disorder.
But confirm diagnosis is only possible after detail evaluation of his mental status and thought processes.

It can be treated with anti psychotic medicines and other modality.

Go for psychological evaluation and consult psychiatrist for better assistance.

I hope I have answered your question. Thank you.
