How to help a restless person

Hello. 🙏

My dad is getting older, and he's gradually becoming more and more restless.

He was always overactive, but after my mother's death (6 years or so ago) this has gotten worse and worse and worse...

Nowadays, he can't stay still for 1 minute. When I and other people tell him that he needs to see a psychologist, that the fact that he can't stay still for one minute is too much (everyone has tried talking to him in many different ways), he doesn't listen to ANYONE! He supports that he doesn't need help and that "this is who he is. "

It's extremely frustrating. Me and my sister also think that he should see a neurologist because his condition goes beyond psychology... We're afraid this will reach alzheimer, etc...

I was thinking of doing a magical working to help him calm down (Nauthiz), but what if the working just calms him down a bit, but the main problem remains? How can I persuade him when words don't reach?

If he is unwilling to take your advice, then there's little you can do without repeating yourself, hoping for a different outcome.

You could try something with runes, with the addition of cleaning his aura daily. Otherwise, you can do a God ritual and request help on his behalf.

My father has different issues than yours; however, what's similar is that they won't listen and won't change because of us. You can open doors and provide space and potential with magic, but the success depends on them recognizing the problem, and their decision to act on it.
