[|AI|]  Degree understand your concerns went through your description. I suggest you not to worry too much. From the symptoms you provided, it seems that your son is troubled with schizophrenia with paranoid ideation.  Proper assessment is required to have proper diagnosis and treatment. Please consult a psychologist for psychometric assessment and advise on further treatment methodology. Psychiatric treatment also is necessary for such a condition. Consult a psychiatrist according to the advice given by your psychologist. Do not delay please. Delay may make cure difficult.
