This episode of Define Insanity continues the conversation with Louis in Part 2 of his story.
After serving nine years in prison, Louis returns home determined to rebuild his life—only to discover that his younger brother Joe is already caught in the grip of addiction. Louis describes the impossible position of trying to move forward while being pulled back into chaos by someone he loves.
The conversation explores the full impact of Joe’s nine-year addiction on the family, offering a raw Al-Anon-style perspective rarely heard. Louis speaks candidly about the emotional toll, the constant fear, the loss of trust, and the lingering trauma left behind even after sobriety begins.
This episode focuses on the other side of addiction—the people who survive it alongside the addict—and the long road toward healing, boundaries, and cautious hope.
