The problem is that I have a younger brother who's a total asshole and my older one (the one I was talking about previously) tries to befriend or keep in touch with my abusive father (who was divorced and so I live with my Mom). I think they're both bad influences on my older brother, my father especially. My father even convinced my brother to drop out of college or at least put it into his mind that he couldn't pass (due to him possibly being Autistic).
But yes, I will do what you say; I should try to encourage him to be kind to himself and maybe broach the subject about getting a diagnosis for Autism like I did, since that could make things clear to him.
