My brother has been acting differently

2017-08-02 14:49:58
Hi I am speaking on behalf of my brother. He came home yesterday acting very weirdly. He spoke to my mom saying he is in trouble and got scared and wanted help. Ever since then hes been shouting and screaming and we dont know what to do. He didnt mention that he did smoke weed but I believe there may have been something else contained inside it.
