We are not doctors here and I have not had much experience with people that use drugs but my brother.

I live across state from him and had not heard from him for three years...did not know if he was alive or not. All his friends used drugs/ alcohol/ or both as he did.

He was rescued by his best friend and taken to his home closer to where I live and has been detoxing for a month now from methametaphine & alcohol.
He still just sits and looks ahead or sleeps day and night.

He is now able to eat & is gaining weight back.

Your brother sounds like he needs to see a doc as soon as possible if he is as bad as you are saying. If he was taken away it would be to find help for him. No one should doubt your concern....more people than you will ever know do go to ER's or an ambulance is called for them when they are in difficulty with drugs or alcohol...or possibly a mental breakdown of some kind.

As most people should know...family does not make a person drink or use drugs but they have much concern for their family member.

You will never know what is going on unless he gets checked out by a doc.

My brother hasn't seen a doc yet either but will do so soon. He is still very shakey and nervous but that is from the detoxing.
