Season 2 of Define Insanity kicks off with a deeply personal conversation featuring Josh, Justin’s brother. While addiction stories are often told from the perspective of the person struggling, this episode explores the experience of those standing closest to the chaos. Josh shares what it was like to watch Justin’s addiction unfold, the impact it had on their family, and the difficult balance between love, support, frustration, and self-preservation. The brothers reflect on the years surrounding Justin’s addiction, the strain it placed on family relationships, and the uncertainty that comes with loving someone who is spiraling out of control. They also discuss recovery, healing, and how trust is rebuilt over time. This episode offers an honest look at addiction through the eyes of a sibling and highlights the often-overlooked experiences of the people affected alongside the addict.
