You just touched on something that I’ve always tried to figure out about my brother. I’ve posted on here recently about him so apologies if those reading post have already heard my story..
Anyway, my brother is almost 40..still living at home & myself, other family members know he’s had some type mental illness since his teens. Everyone except my enabling
parents know there’s something wrong with him.
Your post about “saving” people made me think of my brother because he’s involved in a few charities & always bragging about how he’s the only one that cares about people & tries to help the unfortunate. If anyone needs help, it’s him! He also has weird fixation on sick people & funerals.
It's not a crime to be eccentric, or weird. Thank your lucky stars he has a loving family who doesn't shove him into "treatments" that turn him into a monster.
I’m sorry.
Blessings on you and your folks.
