To be honest shaun, you're in denial, you're deep, maybe not as bad as he is, except you're "cooler" about it. I'm trying to bite my tongue here because I've been both you and him before, but don't you think it's pretty sick behavior to take money from your own brother and feed his obviously worsening habit too? Your brother is getting sick shaun and it's only going to get worse.
I've lost an uncle, seen countless friends and other family members go down, had an ex lose her own ex, my ex go insane herself, all of them lost their happiness and seen their well being and futures shattered by addiction.
All the awhile they'd shouted from the top of the mountain "It won't happen to me!" For those who didn't get out, it became "I can't believe it happened to me!"
You want your brother to get better shaun? Set an example, and be a good set of footsteps to follow... get better yourself! It may not change him, but it might help pave the way.
The only reason I'm getting better over time is because I hit absolute rock bottom a few times, I had family and friends that believed in me, and I cared enough to demand and seek the help I needed.
