Hi y'all. Brand new dude here. I'm so glad there is a community like this out there- what a fantastic resource!

Would someone like to suggest where I can start a thread looking for advice re: how to tactfully & lovingly & properly respond to a family member who can periodically be rageful (unprovoked as far as I can tell) and occasionally have remarks that are beyond (please don't prejudge-I am talking BEYOND by 99% of any body's standards ) "socially inappropriate" ?

Dont want to get into details in an introduction thread here but I love the guy & am having a challenge not taking him to task for this last remark of his.

What Forum Category should I go to for some constructive advice?

Thanks for having me!

You can't really do anything about your brother's (?) problem. He has to want to help himself. Is he a member here?

He's not a member here that I know of.
