Hello doctor, my aunt is suffering from a mental illness. She blabbers loudly throughout the day, she feels she is superior to all and everyone is trying to get her down. She is highly superstitious. She also gets hallucination and trust only people who praise her. She has immense amount of energy compared to a women of age of 55. What kind of syndrome is this? What can be possible treatment as it is very difficult to take her to a doctor whole day she keeps on screaming loudly in house please help.

Because of the loud shouting you should take her to a doctor and perhaps a short hospitalization too. She is displaying some typical signs of psychosis and this condition can only get worse if neglected. Yes, she can become really very strong and have immense energy in this stage. If she is not cooperative, the doctor may be willing to give you medicines that can be surreptitiously slipped into her food or drink and make her more amenable to therapy. Whatever your difficulty, you have to get her medical and counseling help, and soon too.
