Oh my gosh - only life can write these kind of stories. I am so glad that finally your brother seems to have found a point to turn around and take charge of his life. This must be so very hard. I know my brother struggled with depression (sometimes I think I do, too), I wished I had known sooner, maybe I was blind, he got medication and was getting better but then, five years ago now, - he passed. I am still so very sad and miss him. Your post made me tear up again. I really hope that your brother - er kann die Kurve kratzen und kriegt sein Leben wieder in den Griff. Seine Kinder - wow - das muss so schwierig sein für ihn...
Manchmal denke ich auch, dass ich zu viel Alkohol konsumiere, verglichen mit anderen immernoch wenig, aber schon täglich - and that scares me. Every now and then I take a few days to check in that I can go without it and I can, without a problem but who knows... to me personally some alc still tastes good, I really enjoy the taste i.e. it is not just dull my senses. Recently, I have been thinking a lot about weed, CBD but I'm very hesitant about it, I just don't know. It's kind of like - alc = the devil I know.
I really hope you are okay through all this, Chris. You and your wife as well.
