Heart Wrenching! I am going through a similar situation with my brother but with alcohol. It is wrecking his life. I have even put a temporary roof over his head & he abused it last night by making a bad choice & coming back to mine verbally aggressive and threatening as I wouldn’t let him in as he broke my no alcohol in my house rule & I called the police he kicked open my door & walked in as if he has done wrong & expected to just go & sleep it off ! Police removed him & my decision is from then do u want to press charges & appear in court & he will be put back inside as 3 months ago he came out of prison due to alcohol related behaviour and say is there anywhere we can take him as there is no shelters help for him & he is on the streets tonight. My health & happiness has now drained away just as I was learning to trust a little. Hiding drink to function & lying seems his way to get what he wants. Binge drinking & a personality disorder is not a good mix. I now have to face a difficult decision today do I allow him back sober until he finds a place to live or not allow him & tough love sees him on the streets to reach out for the help he needs. I have accepted after years of support I cannot do this any more I am on my own now & mum & sisters cannot & will not deal with it any more, I am too close to him & he is abusing my nature. I didn’t sleep last night with worry & I am terrified of making a decision today & telling him!
