Dear Sir, My brother Rajan has a mental problem since 11 years. His problem is that he always talks to himself and sometimes becomes violent. He has been taking medicine from beginning itself, but after taking medicine, he becomes lazy and less talks to himself. Every time this problem is regenerated if someone says something wrong to him or he feels wrong words from the receiver. This problem started when his lover dumps him. Regards, Rajani
Hello, Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor for posting your query. Rajani, Your brother appears to have serious mental illness. Since it is 11 years, you surely might have shown it to many psychiatrists. From the description that you have given it appears that he might be having schizophrenia- but it will be too early to make a diagnosis, and we need to talk to him first to confirm the diagnosis. There are many newer Chat Doctor.  Viz Aripiprazole, Amisulpiride etc. You can ask your doctor to prescribe you those. You should try changing your psychiatrist if you are not convinced by the treatment. Hope I have answered your query. I will be more than happy to help you if you need any further clarifications.
