Hi my brother suffers from bipolar/severe depression.We as a family have had to go through hell in the last 20 years with him,a real nightmare.If I had to go into it all I would be here until next week.Along with that he is an alcoholic.
I would like someone to reply my post who actually knows as a family what we are going through.How it affects us as a family and what its like to have someone so close with this illness.
what have your experiences been?how have you coped?Has it made your anxiety or depression worse?I would love to hear from anyone.My brother is 37,but hes like a little boy.He is on self distruct at the moment.As a family we have helped him in every way we can,he has had all the support from us and metal health teams,but he does nothing to help himself.
Hope to hear from you soon.:hugs:
