What happened to the family Josh was staying with when the Islamic State group struck in 2016?
Iβm Not a Monster began after Josh was injured by an ISIS truck bomb in Mosul, Iraq. If it wasnβt for an old contact reaching out to see how he was doing, he may never have heard about Sam and Matthew.
Now he returns to the Iraqi city and finds that while the fighting may be largely over, the people of Iraq are facing a different battle as a mental health crisis has taken hold.
This episode includes descriptions of violence and some upsetting moments involving children.
