The information is inadequate Under intoxication if you fater is being aggressive, then he would not need any antidepressants..rather he would need deaddiction. But if he is feeling depressed or is having any other symptoms when he is sober, then he would need psychiatric treatment
Next Steps
do consult a psychiatrist for detailed assessment and further treatment of your father
