You need to get out of his house. He is putting you in danger.
I really am not informed enough to tell you what the best way of doing that is.
Even though they are religious (catholic), Covenant House appears to be a pretty good resource and they won't turn you away no matter what you believe. You can call them at 1-800-999-9999, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and they have people who know a lot more about this than I do who can talk to you. They are primarily a shelter for run-aways, but they have a other programs, and know about a lot of programs in areas where they're not active.
I can't direct you much better than that because they are the only national organization I'm aware of. There are millions of more local organizations - if I knew what city you were in, I would be able to find you more resources. If you add info telling me what city your in, I'll search for resources local to you.
I know you need to get out of there. Sooner rather than later.

You have a choice between two evils. Your brother or a home. I wish I had a better answer for you. At least in a home you have a chance. Eventually your brother will lose control and your luck will run out. Is there possibly another relitive you can ask to take you in? They will need to go through the court system to do it, and you'll spend time in a home while the battle is being faught. Try calling some of the abuse hotlines and runaway hotline to see if they have any other options that you can work with. I wish I could give you a better answer, but this is all I know to do. I pray you find your way to safety and happiness. Big hug and support!

Can you go back and live with your other bother? I also need to know how old you are and what state you live in.

Sometimes we have to do things we dont wanna do... you really need to leave that type of place... your ruining your future staying there... i know you don't want to but get out and i mean by going to the police and such... i know going to a home isnt great but it is better than staying with your brother... keep your head up and gather strength... i have faith in you because no one deserves what your going through...
You are strong enough and i beleive you can do it... don't let people dictate your future... your in control of your future

tell somebody as soon as you can! tell your school principal or councelor or anybody that you can trust and they would help you. don`t run away. if you have to go to another home again, it`d be better then staying with your brother because he drinks and he hits you and he tries to rape you. get out while you can ♥

Wait, your own brother is trying to rape you? That's wrong and you definitely need to try to find another place to live, no matter where it is. You don't need to be put up with that. If you have any other relatives that you know will take you in and let you live in their house, then try to contact them and ask them. You can always go to Child Services if you need to. I know you don't want to end up in a place you don't want to but your own brother shouldn't try to rape you. He needs to get help.

Tell someone. Yes it may get you in a home agian, but being abused is far worse. I was kinda in the same spot you were before. My brother would always hit me because he was going through a hard time. I finally couldnt take it and I told a teacher. The teacher was able to help me. No one can tell you what to do, but do you really want to go on living like this? Im sorry you have to go through this. But maybe going back to a home might be better for you. Living on the streets isnt, but what if he does rape you? what if he hits you so bad he breaks something or worse? Im sorry i cant be much help, but you have to think of what you want more. Going to a home, or being abused. If you need more help, ill do the best i can, just ask another question.
-my prayers are with you-
