My brother- in- law is a science graduate and MBA , is 29+ yr old. 1 month ago he was normal. But recently we found some mental disorder on him. He is fearing his neighbour or relative to attend any ceremony cause they may kill him or families  , he judging people with there face, eyes, eyebrows etc. He thinks that all doctors are evil like they are demons worshipers, he explains it from some Greek or Roman mythology. Few months ago a snake entered into house and I ( Jamai of his family) help to get out the snake from house and didn't kill it. He fears snake, he is now blaming me from some mythology that I am a demon . I love my wife and calls her "SONA" means " gold" , he is saying why he calls like that , he is trying to kill my sister, he is doing drama to kill my sister as according to his mythology or anything else.

Hello, Symptoms are more suggestive of Psychosis NOS. Please start medicine for him otherwise things will get worsen. He is still in Acute Psychotic Episode stage. So treatment will be of lesser duration. As time will progress, treatment duration will increase. If he is not willing to take medicine, then injections or medicine which can mixed in food, can be tried.
Next Steps
Consult psychiatrist ASAP

Hello, These symptoms are suggestive of psychosis. He is not having any contact with reality at present. These symptoms worsens over time. With the help of medication these symptoms will subside. If there is poor compliance with medication he can be given long acting injectable which need to be given once per month.

Consult nearby psychiatric clinic.
