Well Crap

[teddybears4ever2]

My brother-in-law has been seizure free for almost 8 months.  That is up until yesterday.  He had a seizure.  I think he freaked out about my sister and brother-in-law, and their daughter, and how close the came to death.  He doesn't handle stress very well, and he usually turns to drinking.  
He is so mad, as he always gets when seizures happen to him.  I can't talk to him right now, but hopefully I will be able to soon.

He claims for the most part that he has stopped drinking.  I am not 100% sure I believe him.  That is another issue for another day.
I can't talk to him, because he gets so angry.  Talking to him does not good, as he will just yell at you.  He will not listen to reason, and I am not going to force him to listen to me.
With someone like him you have to let him come to you.  I have tried to approach him before and he just gets mad.

i am unsure how you cannot talk to him? reasure him you are there for him and things wont be bad if he knows there is support there for him. fits happen to people. i cannot control mine, they come and go every few years. i realise it freaks people out as i was when i first say someone have one. i have had them 14 years now and been close to death on most of mine. i did actually die on my first one. i do suggest that drinking is not the best thing for him though.
