    I agree with Hifsa,

    I would calmly take him to a public place like they said and talk it out there. It might be a little rough at first, it was when I tried talking to my parents about their drinking habits, but it paid off. ^^ Stay strong and hold your head high. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. ^^
    I wish you the best of luck my friend

    Hey, Werner it'll be fine because bad times never last...there are always good times ahead! I'll pray that everything will be ok...we never have any alcohol problems because my religion prohibits it so i don't really know but temper runs high in my family and we have had many scenes but I always fight back, mainly because I think that thats my right...but staying patient in a situation like this, you showed great resilience...I guess you should get your brother some professional help and just try to reason with him calmly but firmly and not at home...take him someplace public so that he doesn't make a scene...I'm not at all good at giving advice but I hope that helps :) Stay strong, dear friend :) We're here for you :) And whenever you need to talk, just do...

    Alcohol can have some nasty affects on people, and I'm sorry your brother is one of those people. But don't hate on everyone who does drink (Not saying you are, just saying something to keep in mind). Not everyone acts like that when drunk or when they have a couple to drink.
    You just have to keep your head up. Has your brother considered getting help? He sounds like an alcoholic.

    Ah yes, that's very true. Drunk people never realize they're wrong until they really hurt someone, and even then they try to blame something else. But let`s hope your brother realizes sooner rather than later.
    If you're feeling down...imagine a T-rex trying to make your bed :) LOL I read that somewhere and it stuck with me xD

    Awww thank you so much my dear friend^^ Yeah we do have those groups here but It has to be his own decision to go to such a group no one can force him..Its not easy to make a drunk person admits that he is wrong and that he needs to see someone..

    Drunk people like my brother thinks they are always right and no one can tell them other wise..They actually believes they don't have a drinking problem..

    But thank you my friend^^ I really appreciate it..You rock

    Sorry to hear that. :( It's really a bummer when those you love most say hurtful things, even though you know they don't really mean it. I hope your brother comes around. I know they have alcohol anonymous groups here, but I'm not sure if they have groups where you are that might help him. Maybe all he needs is someone to talk to and that drinking is his way of coping?
    I wish you and your family the best of luck as you deal with this.
    Take care!

    Hehe thank you for the sweet comment! I'm glad your staying strong too, you mom sure could use a protector like you. I'm sure he'll wake up one day and realize what he has become. Alcohol is such a negative thing. Like i said if you need anyone, I will be here for you!

    I'm sorry to hear that! Like Jen said you need to give your brother some tough love. You're not powerless my friend, you're actually one of the most headstrong people I know. And I know this will pass and can be fixed just hang in there a little longer! If you need a shoulder to cry on, I'm here for you dear! ^^ You're whole family will be in my prayers, just promise me that you'll stay strong! :)

    Aw Werner :( This is sad news to hear. I have never had to deal with alcohol but I did have to deal with a brother who has gotten angry at me and family problems at times, so I can understand :) I find that it always helps to pray when things like this happen. Trials like this will just make us stronger if we commit everything to Him.
    As for your attitude toward your brother now, I think you should have tough love with him. He wasn't in his right mind when calling you names and drinking like this. And its very good that you didn't fight him. Stay strong and don't give in. Pray, and I'll pray for you all too <3 I'm sure your brother will turn around with us praying for him. I hope your mom gets well soon and your dad is safe too.
