One possibility might be that he is hallucinating things that scare
him--have you checked this out? If so, there are good anti-psychotic meds
(Clozaril, Zyprexa are 2) which his neuro could consider. In any case his
neuro should be aware of his condition.
I can't recall his age and years diagnosed, but this could be a reaction to
meds.
