[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like your brother is severely mentally ill. That isn't his fault. It also sounds like your parents are total enablers, which hasn't done your brother any favours.

What have you done to try and help him? Have you intervened with your parents? Your brother really isn't getting the physical or mental health care he needs.

I don't understand people who talk this way about the mentally ill. I'm not trying to minimize the stress this has caused in your life at all, but he is sick! He needs empathy, support, acceptance, and help. [/quote]

Well, he refuses any help, and refuses treatment.  We can't commit him involuntarily.  Guess my parents should just keep on enabling him so he doesn't have to live on the streets....  And yeah, I don't buy the whole "mentally ill" thing.  If anything, his mental illness is a result of him frying his own brain because he chose to use drugs.  Anyway, you can tell that all my empathy is dried up long ago.  If a late-30s guy is still preying on his 70-year-old parents this way I think he deserves hatred and disgust.  Guess if he decides to move out here and live with my parents I will just cut them all out of my life, which sucks for my children because they love their grandparents.[/quote]

A lot of people start using drugs to self-medicate their mental illness. Read up on mental illness. Bottom line it means your brain does not work right, so if your brain is not working as it should you are not going to make rational decisions. 
If your brother is acting out in a paranoid manner that means he is crazy. What  don't you get about it. [/quote]
