maybe the meds need to be changed, someone may beed to see his doctor with him to discuss other meds that may not have the same bad side effects

I know. At this point I'm more worried about my dad losing his sanity than I am about my bro losing his life. I know that sound like shit but he's put us through so much grief it's either do or die, for real. He needs to grow the fuck up.

I have a history of mental illness (bi-polar disorder among other labels). I can relate to the medications side effects. They do suck. I have yet to be on a med that didn't have shitty side effects. I am currently not on any meds due to a lack of health insurance. I'm doing OK now but I can feel the depression creeping up on me.
Your brother will probably always have this struggle. At least until he realizes that he has to be on meds. Unfortunately there is nothing you or any other family member can do to make him take his meds. The only thing you can do, as a family, is try to be there for him....for the good times and the bad.
Best wishes.
