[quote=Anonymous]OP, I've dealt with more than one personality-disordered family member. Decide what you are comfortable with and do it. Send him a $15 giftcard for incidentals at the beginning of each month and tell him that is all you can do. He will whine, complain, maybe even rage. You need to learn to ignore that. That is part of the disorder and how he is used to getting what he wants. Shut him down when he does that. End the conversation, don't respond to texts or voicemails until he can communicate properly. Don't bring it up again later - when he calms down talk to him normally. If he becomes abusive freeze him out. It sounds harsh but the guilt trip and demands will be neverending if you don't learn to shut down the manipulation.[/quote]
