My brother just called me.

2. The effects of generational trauma.... yeah, it's a bear.

All you can do is work on him to get the help HE needs and he needs is now. It's not your job to wave a wand to make it all OK, but I fully understand that you may have mixed feelings. It's not possible for you to be there, but is there anyone, any agency, in your brother's location who might be able to intervene?

Truly feel for you and your family. So much trauma that we don't always address and work on and it only compounds the problems. Maybe find some counseling help in his area and ask where you can call to get help? All you can do is what is within possibilities. Someone has to WANT to get better.

Wish there was something concrete I could do to help your family. The pain is understood.
