TW:addiction

I’m looking for some real genuine advice.

My brother is 32 years old and he’s a drug addict. We don’t exactly know what he’s using but he’s definitely using something. Reasons I believe this are:

1. He doesn’t shower, or clean.

2. He never has any money. Lives with mom, but works full time making at least $20 an hour plus his part time job. He doesn’t pay rent.

3. My dad co signed him a car a few years back. He currently has cases in 3 different countries for being pulled over. Unpaid court fees, was on a payment schedule but he didn’t keep the money coming in so they took him to court for a show cause hearing which he didn’t attend. He also didn’t attend his arraignment yesterday for no proof of insurance, registration, tags, ect.

The list can go on and on. There has been so many court dates that have passed by that he just doesn’t even go to them. He gets reminders on his phone and he still doesn’t care.

Personally, I feel like one of my parents should go to the courthouse and find out if he has a warrant. We have tried tried and tried to help him but nothing seems to get thru to him. Maybe he’s hiding? I’m not sure anymore. The courts have my dad’s address for him but he lives with my mother. I just don’t understand. On top of all that he has a loan thru the bank, gets behind on payments then don’t have insurance which they penalize him an extra $400 per month if he doesn’t have car insurance.

At this point I almost feel like they are harboring a fugitive even if he didn’t do anything bad like an assault and battery. Like he just doesn’t understand and it’s bringing a lot of stress to our family, he doesn’t get invited anywhere with us really because he is always on something and doesn’t know how to act. He’s very disrespectful. Idk what to do. What would you do? I know I can stay out of it but it’s becoming a serious issue and my mother wants him out of her house. None of us wants to see him homeless but like what in the hell are we supposed to do if he doesn’t want to even help himself?
