My Mom Has Lost It Over My Brother’s Death?

Question by Ok: My Mom Has Lost it Over My Brother’s Death?
My brother overdosed over a year ago on Methadone after he got off of heroine. My mother let him stay with her even though he was lying all of the time and didn’t work. She paid for his drugs when he was on heroin and she paid for his prescriptions (which he abused) when he got off it. Anything to keep him off the streets is what she thought. He had a lot of problems before the overdose, he needed help and he was losing it. I knew it and kept warning my mom who was in denial. I eventually found track marks on his arms, he was injecting his oral methadone and taking way too many anti anxiety meds. I warned her she’s going to find him dead (a year before it actually happened) but she just ignored me. I moved out of the state and got a call from her around 4am my time that she found him dead. It was the worst day of my life. She was all alone and I had left them, her, to be with my husband and away from the daily chaos and denial. I felt responsible. I know now that I’m not but I wish that I could have convinced her or helped him get help.

Overdose
Main article: Benzodiazepine overdose

Overdoses of alprazolam can be mild to severe depending on how much of the drug is taken and if any other depressants have been taken. Alprazolam is significantly more toxic in overdose than other benzodiazepines with higher rates of fatalities. A study in New Zealand found that alprazolam is almost 8 times more likely to result in death in overdose than other sedative hypnotics as a group, with higher rates of ICU admissions and mechanical ventilation. Combined overdose with tricyclic antidepressants, alcohol, or opiates, or overdoses of alprazolam in the elderly, significantly increases the likelihood for severe toxicity and possible fatality.[91] Alprazolam (Xanax) overdose reflect the central nervous system depression of the brain and may include one or more of the following symptoms:[28]
