Suggest treatment for mental health disorder
human
Hello Doctor, My brother has been suffering from mental health disorder since long long time almost from birth. We consulted a doctor only since 2000 and his treatment was continued till 2004. He stopped having the then prescribed medicines(sizodon and feliz). However he was alright till 2009. Again from 2010 he started becoming violent and recently his violence increased. He is non adjustive, does not like change. With lot of difficulty we have initiated treatment again but I want him to take to bangalore with me, and he is not willing to come permanently, He stays with my parents in bhubaneswar and he treats my parents very aggresively and sometime violent. He does not expose much in front of others, even me, and remains polished most of the time, please advise  doctor,  I am desperate to find out a solution..

Hi,Thanks for writingFrom what I understood, your brother has some mental health issues, which has been there since early childhood, and has been causing you a lot of trouble of late. As you have mentioned, he however responds well to medicines, and hence probably that is what is needed presently. Visit a psychiatrist, and get him on a regular medicine regimen. Subsequently, the treatment can be planned accordingly.Hope that helps,Dr A Rao
