Dear User,

Thanks for using health care magic.

From the available description it appears that your son is self medicating himself for family problem which is more dangerous than any kind of depression and anxiety.
He needs medical treatment preferably from a psychiatrist. If he is not willing for treatment that indicates probably he lost the capacity to consent and in that case help of law enforcing agencies can be sought out. You might be knowing as per the mental health act a person can be admitted in hospital if there is danger to his life or others life.


'Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help".
Thanks
