I attempted an PM but not available...
My name is Denese, 68 year old female alcoholic...
I hope this does not offend you or frighten you; I'm just offering my experience, perhaps that will be helpful...
I am an alcoholic; I am a sibling; I have always felt I didn't deserve them; they imho are so better than me.
The reason I don't have contact with them is my fierce protection of them, my shame at them enduring me, my sadness I can't be better for them.
I don't know how this ends; I don't know how to change my feelings of failure to those I love most; but I want my failures to encourage change for the future...
I hope this makes sense in a small way for you and your family; please know your brother is not thinking of himself, but of others. Know he'll always be with you in his own way.
