Psychological? PTSD?: This usually indicates a psychological issue, although it could be medical (e.g. hormonal). If he has had an upsetting or traumatic event any time in the past (even years or decades ago), it could be post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which of course has been in the news a lot in the past few years. He should see his doctor soon. This could be quite serious; don't delay.
