Hi everyone. I am new to this site and would like to get some views and experiences of other people. My father has just had his assessment and a visit from his GP, both of which are long overdue because my parents have kept his condition quiet. I know it is not his fault but my father has started getting violent towards my mother to the point that we have to go to the home at night to try and calm things down. The problems seem to arise from his irregular sleeping patterns even though he has been prescribed a mild sedative which worked great to start with but is slowly losing its effectiveness. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance
