Hello doctor I want to ask something about my grandfather he is 65 years old and suffering from depression he has stopped eating medicines and keeps on sleeping whole day and doesn't want to eat anything and today he even fainted down everyone gets fed up from him and gets angry on him I am really worried my father's brother behaviour is very impulsive he will never understand what's happening with him he will just shout on him at every of his mistake. My grandfather also keeps on thinking about small things that why we are we spending money that's why my father's brother keeps on shouting at him I know that its not his mistake but he will never understand please help please he even do not want to visit any doctor.

Hello lybrate-user, I appreciate your concern for your grandfather. Your grandfather needs more of family support and involvement .Try to convince your father to be in the grandfather's place and understand ,May be ,then he can convince his brother further. Keep doing your best with faith, keep praying and you can take support of any family friend or relative who can work as a mediator and convince the elders of the family that neglect would worsen the problem. He can be cured with care, love and support.
