Suggest Treatment For Mental Disorder
Hello Dr,
My father has mental disorder, he was hospitalized and treated 15 years back, from then he is in medication. He used alcohol as well. His doctor has advised not to use alcohol and take medicine and do visit regularly.
For the past 2 months he was not taking the all the medicines prescribed, and looks affected now. Fights with everyone, doesn't trust anyone and almost back to serious mental illness. This has happened in the past as well, where we try getting him back on track taking doctors advice, giving medicines and controlling him from alcohol.
I feel councelling and hypnotherapy could help him with the medicines.
I request your advise and help to see him cured.

Hi,
I do not feel that the symptoms that you have described can be managed with just counselling and hypnotherapy. His symptoms seem serious enough to require regular medicines. If he resists, he may need to be given medicines by stealth or he may need hospitalization.
Best wishes.
