After the COVID-19 pandemic, I find a difference in my father, as his anxiety and stress have increased. His blood pressure is around 160 mmHg and never decreases, but he takes his medicine normally. He is 48 years old. Can you give me advice to help my father's stress and anxiety?

Can cognitive-behavioral therapy help in recovering from depression and mood changes?
Hi doctor,
I get stress when someone opposes my point of view, thoughts, or ideas. I give an arrogant irrelevant reply and move away from the place. I am not happy in my home. I feel that everything should happen according to my opinion. Please help.

Is getting too excited out of a sudden and crying the next moment normal?
Hello doctor,
My cousin keeps complaining about her looks. She says she does not look beautiful, but her sisters are beautiful. She is nice sometimes but suddenly starts crying or gets very excited. I keep telling my family members that she is undergoing some issue that needs to be sorted out, but neither her mother nor her sisters are willing to help her. They keep saying that she has been like this since she was born and everything is normal. But I do not feel so, and she has recently changed so much (though she used to say that she is not good-looking but has never seen her so intense). Is her behavior normal? What is happening to her? Please help me.

I am experiencing some severe mood swings because of this disorder, and I fear I might lose all my friends and family. I get annoyed easily for small matters, and I shout at people without listening. I get emotional suddenly and throw things that are around me. Later I feel guilty for what I do, but I cannot control myself. Kindly help.
