    Work on you, be a power of example and when he complains you have it better than him tell him when he is ready you are willing to show the way. No nagging involved since active addicts tend to hate that. You can't control the actions of another.

    Listen, You will do him a better justice by fixing yourself. Although it may seem difficult at first, you have to be able to say to yourself I am tired of the negative effects my brothers actions have brought to my life. You won't be turning your back on your brother you will be giving him an option. Offer an ultimatum, give him the opportunity to continue a life with you. Say, If you continue this negative behavior I will no longer stay in contact with you and support your addiction.
