hi my brother has been a alchoholic since years. Beyond alchohol, he has smoking habits too. Initially, he started alchohol as a pleasure with friends. But he is a person with inferiority and other complexes. He has not been able to get financially stable on his own. This problem was not that big until his marriage. But, after marriage this problem has become worse, as he is not earning and that the house expenses are met by his wife who has a government job. Now, he drinks almost daily. I can see some more new features in his behavior. When he is drunk, he is a bit more excited, and is not able to understand things fast. I have even seen him struggling to talk once when he was overdrunk. But even now he doesn't want to quit, and he talks as if he is ready to accept death with pleasure. He does not want to understand the feelings of people who really care for him. Is this stage beyond limit? What are the possible treatments available for him?

We want a sincere advice on what needs to be done from our part before it gets too late. Please help.
