The difficult challenge is to get the co-operation of a person with psychoses as they reside more in their own world and get disconnected from the real world and others in it. Since he is also violent and demanding it can sabotage direct therapy.

Family members can learn therapeutic ways of talking with him that could calm him.

Family communications and atmosphere needs to be consistent, calm and clear. Conflicts in the home can be sorted out peacefully. Differences about how he should be treated should be kept to a minimum. These sorts of family stresses too immediately lead to the patient’s symptoms flaring up. Therapy can help in these matters too. Healing can be done through a close family member. Since are all energy beings, healing and prayer can be useful along with the regular medical treatment he is under.

Shared creative or positive activity of 2 or 3 family members together is helpful such as going for a walk together or playing a game of cards or carom or any other non-violent game or doing yoga together is helpful in the patient regaining trust.

It depends on many factors that are not there in your question. Do both of you want to revive the relationship or is it your wish only? If it is your wish alone then of course you would first have to ask what the doubts of the other are and whether he or she will give the relationship a chance. If you both wish to revive it, it is of course much simpler. It’s important for both to agree to re start all aspects of the relationship slowly so that expectations don’t flare up and then again both would be disappointed in each other. To revive a relationship it can be useful to create some agreements for respect based communications. Plan to have regularly once a week some positive activity together, focus on the positives, remember the little etiquettes to greet and say goodbyes and be appreciative with each other for small things. These things can be powerful to get positive feelings associated to oneself from the other and create a foundation of trust. Initially till the renewed relationship settles down both can decide not to bring up the past. You may need to have better ways to manage differences and conflicts too. In the backdrop of positivity conflicts are easier to sort out. Generally keeping a view of the overall strengths and values you like in the other person you would decide to be accepting of what you find difficult of the other.

Your stress is a message that you need to set limits with your brother. A person like your brother who remains dependent and demanding can be difficult indeed. Such a person identifies with being a victim, helpless and so feels fully justified that you need to help him. He probably gets his way around you by blaming you and creating guilt. You can let him know you can see he is not managing well in life and will support him but this support will be limited. You can decide a sum of money that is possible for you on a monthly basis. Anything more he needs he will have to earn for himself. For this you need to disburse the money to him on weekly instalments as else he may spend it off and with the pressure he can create you may find it almost impossible to keep to the limit. Also he needs to be told this is a help for a limited period and he needs to start some work. This kind of agreement you need to create with two or three witnesses who are well respected in the family or social circle and are accepted by both of you. Follow up meeting can be held with the witnesses once in two months. You may need keep your business growth and money matters as private as possible as such a person can easily start feeling you owe them more if you are doing so well. The monthly limit you share with him can be known to him as the final one. However privately mentally keep a reserve budget that you will give him when he demands but with constant reminders that he is going over the limit. Thus he will exceed the limit only marginally and when he does so he will know you are being flexible and supportive and so he is obligated to you. Your reminding him off and on that this is help for a limited period and every time he cannot manage the period can be extended. This will keep the fact alive that he needs to earn and if he is not he is obligated to you. Else over time this common sense fact is lost sight of and he takes for granted the help he gets from you and in fact considers it his right.

Mind and body are one. Our thoughts and stresses are chemical and emotional simultaneously. Medication is not really a cure. Your body mind intelligence can be brought back. Your acute business tensions caused the loss of control feelings you experienced. Regression therapy can work to rebalance the energies of that time when your problem started. When real fears get overwhelming, our mind diverts us to more imaginary fears to escape having to deal with reality. Our need for escape can be reduced when stress does not overwhelm us. Exploring the way we think and act in relation to various aspects of life and balancing the beliefs with which we do things can be very strong ways of reducing the stress we experience. We make choices on what we will take up and what we will not. Realistic demands from ourselves are important. Rather than medicating you may seriously need to plan your choices around work so the goals and expectations for work and for lifestyle are sustainable for you. Psychotherapy can help us in making our thoughts more rational and our choices more balanced. It may be useful to alter the pace of life with adjusting expectations, taking time off to experience life and nature. Do you take short breaks? This can rejuvenate your brain and restore energy. Practice yoga, do breath work and meditation and seek different psychotherapies especially those that focus on energy work and centering the mind such as emotional freedom therapy, regression therapy and practicing imagery healing - stillness with imagery and affirmations to access the powers of the subconscious and superconscious levels of mind.

Obsessions are being fixated to see only one person or thing as the solution. Check what feeling is satisfied by seeking the love of the person you are infatuated with. Is it comfort, importance, attention, power, status? Beneath this is the fear that is looked after with this obsession. Soothing and balancing this fear will free you of the obsession. Another way to break the trance we are caught in of constant thinking is to do the thinking on paper by writing the thoughts. As mentioned in the answer to the earlier question practice yoga, do breath work and meditation and seek different psychotherapies especially those that focus on energy work and centering the mind such as emotional freedom therapy, regression therapy for where you picked up both the obsession and fears behind it, and practicing imagery healing - stillness with imagery and affirmations to access the powers of the subconscious and superconscious levels of mind.
