What Should I Do About My Drug Addict Brother Coming to Town?
My brother is an alcoholic and a drug addict and he lives in San Fransisco. He is unemployed and has no where to live so my mom bought him a plane ticket to come to Ohio for a few weeks. He is supposed to stay at his girlfriend’s parents’ house-behind their back. He’s going to tell them he’s staying with me so he wants to keep his stuff at my place and wants to stay a couple nights a week. I don’t trust him to stay at my apartment and I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to turn him away. I’m asking if anyone can help me? I don’t have money to send him to rehab- I also don’t know if I could even get him to go. It’s been so easy to ignore his problem because he’s been in San Fransisco for about 8 years. But now he’s coming to Ohio and now I’m forced to deal with it and make a decision- let him stay or turn him away? I work full time and go to school full time. I don’t get home till ten o’clock at night.
I don’t know what to do. I’m so stressed out! My boyfriend lives there too and he has his things there. He just recently bought a big screen tv and a home theatre system and a wii-things that can be sold for drug money since he has no money to support his habit! I just don’t know what to do!
