Hello
I can understand your concerns for your father.
I would advice you to take him to a psychiatrist for proper evaluation and treatment.
If you could list the medications used, i would be able to suggest a different and hopefully effective treatment.
Psychological therapies like biofeedback and progressive muscle relaxation work very well for anxiety.
Thanks.
