[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what do you all do? how much are you helping the siblings whose lives went off the rails? Especially when they had advantages but didn't listen or chose to be manipulative?[/quote] NP - I tried to help my sister relatively early in her course of addiction. But in the last five or so years she refuses any (asked for) advice, is supported largely by our parents, and is often hostile towards me. So I do very little to help her. I know her brain’s a mess at this point, so I don’t entirely blame her for the way she is, but I’m also not going to set myself on fire to keep her warm.[/quote] I have a sibling whose brain is also a mess from addiction. They’re incoherent, have strange memories, delusions, get basic information mixed up, very sad. [/quote]
