I suffer from depression/bipolar and so does my brother (and father, possibly my mother too). Anyway I thought I had it bad, but I saw my brother lose it an hour ago and I do not know how to deal with it. Today he found out he will lose his job in 3 weeks. He owns money on bills he can't pay, he is aways late on some. All he eats are ramon noodles (7 for $1) he does not clean up after himself, he does not even wash the dishes he uses. (he just uses them over and over without cleaning) he has a cat that is neglected. And Many more problems. When he got home he lost it and started yelling, screaming, getting violent, crying, and many suicide thoughts. What and how do I act with him, I love him, but I don't because he is a stranger to me. He has no friends, no famliy that cares. I care, but don't know how to act around him. I basically leave him alone and stay away from him. I'm lonely, but my brother is 100 times worse. What to do? I think he may be better off if he did die. Then I would have a reason to end it myself. Please help us!
