Hello,
Depression becomes sometimes agitated so that can be one reason your brother gets angry. Or your brother has bipolar disorder where depression and agitation come and goes. So I suggest you take your brother to a psychiatrist and start him on antidepressant or mood stabilizer after confirming diagnosis. If he refuses to take medicines, better get him admitted for few days till he recovers and start taking tablets on his own.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Prashant Gohil
