We are codependent.

I read back on your posts and it sounds like things have been messy for a long time. Are you attending Alanon currently?

You cannot make your husband call SS or get a job. What you can do is make a plan to protect yourself financially and stop enabling others while hurting yourself.

That means allowing your brother the dignity to act as an adult and care for himself.

I assume you put the money in your son's college account? Then really the money is yours, not his. And you need it.

Can you separate your finances from your husband? Then he can feel the impact of his own decisions and you can take care of yourself.

You can do this, but it takes work.

No is a complete sentence.

Take care of you.
