Re: My depressed brother needs help and support??
Of course he lacks confidence, being heartbroken, depressed and his life has fallen apart and he blames himself because he wasn’t rich enough! Or he didn’t do enough? This was done to him not by him there is a difference. No way do I say he needs to autonomous at all, I say that he needs build himself up through love and support. He should feel all the stages of grief because the death of marriage but blaming himself will lead to his destruction.
My brother went through a horrendous divorce, he was devastated and we supported him, but not once, not even once did he blame himself because he knew that this was done to him and not by him! Buddy!!!
