Your story reminds me a bit of a book I once read called "And I don't want to live this life", written by the mother of Nancy Spungen, best known as the late girlfriend of Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols. As I recall, her mother felt that many of her daughter's problems had to do with the fact that she was a "blue baby," the deprivation of oxygen at birth perhaps having something to do with her severe behavior problems. I am a little dismayed that the medical profession seems to have done such an ineffectual job so far in helping your brother. I'm afraid I have little to offer other than suggesting to keep on seeking information. You may be forced to educate yourself to some extent on childhood behavior disorders in order to best act on your brother's behalf. However, it sure seems like there should be someone, somewhere, who has a clue to what's going on and can give you some real insight into the underlying problem.
