Again: there have been many, many more second heirs in that position in European history. Most of them have done just fine. It's not about the position, it's about how these individuals react to it.
In fact, several first heirs have also gone off the rails. Just have a look at Ludwig II of Bavaria! Here, too, it is a matter of personal character, not of position: his father, Maximilian I, also was first heir, and was a landmark of stability.
