Not knowing what your brothers mental illness is I cant obviously help give you any guidance (not that a strangers advise is better then first hand knowledge) But I would guess he is probally very manic or something similar. And your right you probally do need to get him in the hospital befor he has a chance to do himself and family any greater harm.
I feel for you. And your very right you do need a break from all the crap your shouldering. Stress is hard on yu but it also affects the baby. YOur chemicals you release during stressful situations cross the placenta and the baby learns to have those chemicals. If you have too much of the chemicals from stress for to long the baby learns to be dependant on it and will create it normally as part of its compisition. What this could mean is that the baby can be on the cranker side of things or be higer strung due to the increased stress hormone. Its not a gaurentee it will happen but definantly good cause to find ways to break from the stress. I tell you this stuff not to add to your stress but to encourage you to take a break even if its simple a bath at night or pick up meditation. FInding ways to lower your bodies responce to stress can be just as helpful as eliminating the stress all together. I had to take up meditation and learn to put the stress in a box (not always easy) when I chose to have anoughter baby. Im bipolar and unmedicated for the babys sake so alternative ways to keep my self in check had to be found and the reasons above is what the docs told me.
Vent here all you want and if you need an extra ear to vent to IM more then glad to listen. Dealing first hand with mental illness sometimes provides a different veiw point on how best to deal with it from a families point of veiw. I have gone through a lot of classes and learned what family goes through and how to bettermoderate myself. So anything you wanna bounce off me feel free ;p
Hugs and hope things let up soon for you
any how the stress is still bad for you as you know cause of the flares it can cause or the after math pain when you finaly break... anyways Im still here if you need an ear to lean on
sorry for the misinformation lmao just blame the fibro
(((hugs to you)))
Make sure you're protected. You can't help your brother if you're vulnerable. I really hope you can get him to sign himself in.
Still sending good thoughts and prayers your way.
yeah i was thinkin of getting a lawyer... i'm tellin my mom about it because she really isn't getting the picture that he is mentally SLIPPING. did i mention the other day that he felt he doesn't have to pay his portion of the electric bill?? i had to convince him that since he lives here, he should pay it! that's how mentally gone he is already!!! no sane person would need CONVINCING to pay bills where they live at! this is what i men, i'm gonna end up getting stuck to cover HIS shit!
my older bro thinks i should getting him off the mortgage and kick him out. i think that's a bit cruel, i'd rather take him to a hospital while i figure out how to separate him from the loan. BUT that will even give him MORE reason to not pay his portion! grrrrr
selfish son of a bitch.... i feel like punching my dad for passing this gene on to him!!!

Maybe there is some way you can secure the house title so that unless you sign it as well it can not be transfered in any way shape or form. Maybe able to keep him from giving the whole house away and or any part that he is entitled to
