Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello thanks for asking from HCM

He got thrown from 2nd floor and currently in hospital. He is not able to talk because of injury to lungs and currently he is throwing the things, getting angry and sad and doesn't want anyone around. Such type of symptoms of anxiety and agitation can occur in a trauma patients during hospitalisation because of severe injury. Usually most patients respond to mild doses of anti-anxiety drugs like Eitzolam, Clonazepam. These medicines helps in calming the individual and result in improvement. You can consult his attending doctor to take one opinion form a psychiatrist regarding his agitation. This should solve your problem.

Thanks, hope this helps you
