My husband is having dreams that he thinks are real, affecting our life. He believes men at work are teaming up to beat him and that all his friends want me (his wife). He recently confessed to cheating on me, and since then, his behavior has become more erratic. He doesn't sleep much and has plenty of energy. He also believes he was fired from work, which isn't true. What is wrong with him, and what can be done to help him, especially since he doesn't have insurance?
