I am sorry but it looks like that in this stage of a disorder the only help for him is full medical treatment. It means putting him in an institution where he can be on the constant observation of skilled professionals. He probably needs to take some drugs. It is not easy decide such a thing. He will think that you have betrayed him. But therapy is only solution for him.
