Hey guys, I've tried to fix this problem myself but since that doesn't seem to be going anywhere I decided to come here. Though this problem started when I was twelve it has never been as bad as it is now. This person who I used to consider a brother on several occasions threatened to murder me, has pulled a knife on me, attacked my father, and most recently tried to murder my sister with a broken bottle. I really don't know what to do, I've tried talking to the police several times, I told them what he's done and that I don't feel safe but they've not been capable of resolving the issue. Every moment that I am in this house I feel on edge, it's gotten to the point where I can only get 2 to 4 hours of sleep a night and where I feel the need to carry a sharpened pencil just incase he attacks. I'm a high school senior who will be off to uni in a couple months, but I can not take this any longer, my parents also refuse to do fuck all about this. I didn't even feel this stressed when my brother hung himself. I tried to leave but I have no money and I also don't want to leave because I fear for the safety of my other siblings, what should I do?

The police won't do anything?
The way I see it you have two options:
- Try to get him sectioned
- Tip off the police to his drugs habit
You obviously can't do nothing. It must fucking suck but doing nothing only puts you and your family in danger.

I've tried to get him sectioned before but my parents always deter me for some reason, they seem to feel the need to defend him on all occasions. Even when he tried to stab my sister they refused to contact the police.

Problem solved

It's my brother, not a friend.

Then do it yourself. They may be deluding themselves but you see the real problem here.

I've done it myself but the police still said they won't be able to do anything. They stated unless they see him try to endanger the life of someone they won't do anything

Do what I did then, since I lived in an abusive household.
Record everything on audio at the very least. That way next time he tries something violent you can get him for it.

That's actually a pretty smart idea, though I'd rather not have another fight because I'm certain he will kill someone, but if he doesn't I will have something to give to the police. Thank you for the advice

Hang in there Anon. One day at a time. Take some deep breaths when you feel stressed. You have a right to be worried. People who get away with violence tend to become even more violent because they start to believe the can get away with anything. Just try to avoid him and head to the Uni. He will probably be locked up soon enough. If he's violent at home he'll start being violent outside to others.
