.Hi, I have problem with my mother who is mentally disturbed from past 3 years. She is too aggressive and she reacts very oddly in social places as well as at home. For any small things she reacts very oddly, We want to show her to doctor in Nimhans Hospital, but we cant pull her in...Is there a away to get her treated without she being present there?
Hi dear, without seeing patient to treat is very difficult as for proper diagnosis detail history and mental status examination is necessary. You can take her forcefully to doctor once. What ever you describe about her suggest that she might have psychotic illness. There are many medications like typical anti-psychotic like haloperidol, chlorpromazine etc. and atypical anti-psychotic like risperidone, olanzapine etc.but without seeing patient difficult. Consult psychiatrist. Thank you
