I am so sorry that you have been going though such hell for a long time taking care of your Mom and Brother. You can not be a 24/7 care giver. Hes needing more help that can be done at home. He might do better in a rehab/nursing home setting you can still go see him often but you can leave and go home and find some peace..
You have to take care of yourself no matter what
