Hi, I'm just going to throw this out there.  Please do not be offended.  Does your Uncle suffer from alcohol or some kind of drug abuse at all that you know of?  This could possibly be a reason, but I don't know, I'm not making any assumptions.  

I guess the only way he can get help is if he really wants it.  It's hard to try to get someone help if they think that nothing is wrong with them in the first place.  Does you Unlce ever get regular checkups by the doctor?  Maybe at that time, if your Aunt accompanies him to a visit, she could bring it up to the doctor then. That's all I can really think of myself. You will be in my thoughts.  I hope everything gets better.

It's very nice that you want to get him help for this.  Don't know if it bipolar or not, he would need to be seen by a dr.  Have you talked to him about this?  Most people who act like this, and especially men, don't want help b/c they think there is nothing wrong with them.  But of course it is always good to try.

Good luck, sounds like you're in for a struggle to me.
