Serious mental issues
It's shameful to share that my father has been under going a serious mental issues since August,2022.He had affairs with another woman and now my father can't stay without talking her.People called it as 'Vashikaran' or something.
But I do not believe all those.
Current conditions of my father:-
1.Father can't stay without talking her.If he can't talk to that woman,he felt heart palpitations.
2.He lost his interest to the family and became careless.Also if we scold or threatened him,he do not care anything anymore.
3.He has become so crazy about that woman that he is ready to do anything for that woman.
Dear specialists,I don't know anything about the situation but kindly suggest me what shall I do now in this situation.

It's a tough position for your family.
Best would be to talk to your father and ask him that u need to meet a psychiatrist.
If he agrees ok. If he doesn't agree u go and meet a mental health professional.
U may also take opinion from your family elders who can provide you support and may help in other aspects which arrises in such situation.
Prior to taking him along, U may choose to talk to a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist near you, who is good in his/her field and tell your problems before hand.
