behavior? suspicious, not trusting, anger , thinks others are plotting against him,passive aggresive
I have a brother who displays symptoms of suspicious behavior, not trusting of others and is very passive aggressive. Has an explosive temper usually over the phone. Thinks there are motives behind everything people do. Has problems with his wife and she is telling us he needs help but he says she needs the help and not him. He does not pay his bills. He is now at retirement age and behavior continues to run his life. His outside personality is friendly and people who don't know him well think he is just a friendly guy. Those who know him well see the anger side.
As a young boy, 7 through 14 he had nightmares and screamed out scaring everyone in the house. He holds a grudge forever. He is noticeably agitated almost all the time. He sees himself as the one who has to be in charge and gets very angry if he is not or can not control any given situation. Can you point me to some reading material that discusses these symptoms? Or have any advise? Thank you
Hello bobnews,
Is your brother on medication for schizophrenia? Has he been diagnosed?
I believe he may need anger management classes. if your sister-in-law perceives she is in immediate harm because of his behavior, something has to be done. Your brother's behavior borders on abuse, maybe not intentional.
If he does have schizophrenia, he needs to be on medication. People who've gone for years without treatment often find treatment helps later in life.
I will research and see if I can find any reading material or books on the topic.
Regards,
Chri

My fiance acts/reacts the same way, and I am unsure what to do. I am 7 months pregnant, and need to find out how to help him now. He blames all of our arguments on me. I am unsure if he has sz, but it sounded like you were describing my fiance. Can anyone help?
