Hi All,
Hope you can help. My brother has been working abroad for 12 months and we havent had much contact with him. He came home for christmas yesterday and stayed at my house. He was acting really strangely he was completely hyper all the time and say that all he was here to do was to make people happy and he needed to progress at work. But nothing specific. Everytime i tried to change the subject he would turn it back round to making ppl happy. e.g i asked him to phone our mum and he said he would and if he didnt then i had to remind him because he wanted to make things right and he needed to get his head down at work etc. Nothing i could do or say could get him away from those subjects. He disappeared before breakfast and then started texting me strange texts about how he was going on show and how he would expose me but he had my back.
When he came home around tea-time he was in a really hyper state again. he had printouts in his hand which he said was evidence that the company he works for (a big large bank) was corrupt and how they were going to give him millions of pounds in hush money. he then showed me some of the texts he'd sent to his bosses and the replies he received. he basically got kicked out of work today as they said they would call the police. I managed to get him round to my mums and he seems a lot calmer in front of her than me and says we cant tell her (although of course I have).
She is going to the docs tomorrow to ask for a referral for him but I wanted to know if that is the best course of action or if there is something more immediate I can do? Also i'm guessing he has bi-polar from what i've read but im new to all this so any advice, opinions or suggestions would be gratefully received.
Thankyou
