Does Ayurveda offer treatments for split personality disorder? - #16735

Lately, my cousin has been acting very strangely, and we are all really worried about him. At times, he seems completely normal, like his usual self—calm, friendly, and easygoing. But then suddenly, without any warning, his whole personality changes. He becomes aggressive, starts talking differently, and even refers to himself by another name. At first, we thought he was joking or trying to get attention, but it’s happening more frequently now. A doctor we consulted suggested he might have split personality disorder, and now we don’t know what to do next. We are considering different treatment options, but my family prefers natural and holistic methods. I have read that Ayurveda views mental health differently from modern medicine, focusing more on dosha imbalances, past traumas, and even spiritual aspects of the mind. Could split personality disorder be linked to an imbalance in Vata, Pitta, or Kapha? If so, how can we bring these back into balance? Another concern is his sleep patterns—he hardly sleeps well, and sometimes he wakes up not remembering things he did earlier. Are there specific Ayurvedic herbs, therapies, or detoxification methods that can help with split personality disorder? Would treatments like Shirodhara or certain herbal tonics be effective in stabilizing his mind? Also, is there any dietary advice in Ayurveda that could help? He eats a lot of spicy and processed food, and I wonder if that could be affecting his mental health. Should we change his diet to something more calming and sattvic? We are really looking for guidance on how to approach split personality disorder in a natural way. If anyone has experience with Ayurvedic solutions for mental health issues, please share what worked for you or your loved ones. Would appreciate any insights on this.
