Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
I think, he is in psychosis. He may have delusion and auditory hallucination. In that case, he needs antipsychotic agent like risperidone or olazapine etc. With these drugs, he would improve in few days. You should consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and management. In case, you needs further help, you can ask.
Thanks
