interested to hear if your way works to "rescue" your brother. i'm confidant it worries you re his drinking. you love him.
i'm glad to hear u're trying to move out of the insanity to a place you can live in peace.
each of us in recovery finds our own path. but we will die if we don't find a solution to our illness. i hope he does, but it's his journey.
as for me when i was in the throes of active alcoholism no one or nobody could've stopped my path to destruction. i had to admit i was defeated and fix it myself. in my case a higher power did intervene, thank goodness. i couldn't have done it alone without His help, imho. i used my group as my higher power for awhile. they had learned a new way of living without alcohol and i hadn't. so they were more "powerful" than me.
