I agree with bama that he won't accept help until he wants it for himself. It sucks. But unforunatly with us addicts, that's usually how it goes. Until he hits a bottom and sees that his life is unmaneagable, he won't "get it". One thing I can suggest for you is to try some Alanon meetings. You can find it in your local phone directory. Those meetings can give you some ability to cope with your brother's illness and maybe give you some pointers and what to say to him. I wish you the best of luck, and you can always come here to get the support you need in this struggle.
