You should take him for a consultation with a Clinical Psychologist. What he might be experiencing is a form of anxiety disorders. Therapy with a Clinical Psychologist will help him overcome the thoughts that he is having.

You should take him to a Psychologist at the earliest. Some people develop such issues after unexpected negative events in life. Some of the behaviours are suggestive of OCD. He is having anxiety related problems.
