I think harry is really brave

[ssd]

Talking about his mental health. Starting talking is the hardest bit. I have to start the conversation and i cant. And i can usually talk for Britain.
I admire him.

There are a lot of bitter and nasty people on this thread.

Most people whose parents were divorced, whose mother died young, who got into drink and drugs in their teens and who didn't do well at school do not end up in 16 bathroom mansions with glamorous actress wives and global companies chucking jobs and millions at them. Maybe it would be better for Harry's mental health if he reflected on how much in life has been gifted to him and smoothed over for him. He does seem to be one of those draining people who finds a cause of complaint in everything. There were people where I grew up who'd never been on any kind of holiday full stop, and yet he's moaning about going abroad on royal duties where everything's paid for him and everyone is primed to be nice to him.

I reckon she and Meghan have already agreed a fee for the divorce tell all. Stream it on Apple TV That is a given. Oprah is a canny operator, she will be thinking way beyond this instalment of emotional incontinence.

coke you do know that anyone can fly anywhere to say goodbye to a dying relative? And Harry did just that a few weeks later when Prince Philip died, so why didn't he come before and actually say goodbye?! Why, because he was too busy advertising his detonation of his own family via Oprah. They filmed the interview months before, so why decide to launch it when your family are grieving and saying goodbye to someone so precious? What a truly disgusting thing to do. The Queen is very far from okay by all accounts, but don't let the truth stand in your way. You are about to learn something about the Queen in the coming months that might make you think twice about your support of H&M. I have no doubt he knows the score, and doesn't care.

Absolutely Rousette.

Still don't get it, I've tried.

When you have had a traumatic past there comes a point when you decide to truly be in recovery you have to let go of what happened and have acceptance to truly move on. I don't think PH is at that point and I think going over and over about it in the press is not doing his recovery any good.

Yes and it’s so lucrative for him to recount it for money. If he was a relative or friend of mine I’d be worried that the financial motive is running counter to his best health interests.

It's brave to acknowledge your issues and get help, and if you are high profile also do that publicly.

After that, all the following revelations about your family, especially in public and just airing the dirty laundry.

S

I don’t like how Harry is acting at the moment, but I think that is most likely a sign of just how ill he is at the moment.

What I like even less though is the “but he has money” “but he has privileges” bullshit as if that makes people immune for Mental Health problems. Mental health issues don’t discriminate like that

Charles supposedly very much regrets doing it. Maybe Harry will feel the same when Archie goes on a talk show to talk about his toxic parents 2 decades from now (if anyone is still interested). Or when Meghan does the divorce tell all with Oprah a couple of years from now.

Maybe he does regret it but he made the choice to go on air and do that which will have had an impact on his children and their mother. Diana also made that choice and to me it looks like neither thought about how it may affect their children seeing their parents doing that to each other for the public to see.
Maybe Archie won't like it but we won't know until then.

Saying 'Well Charles did it!" is a really poor line of argumentation. Either you think it's OK for people to repeatedly slag off their families in front of the world for cash, or you don't. We obviously disagree on this.

That's just my opinion when people talk about how this will effect Charles' mental health, he didn't give a shit about anyone else's when he done his interview. So I don't see why we should be feeling sorry for him.
I think doing interviews talking about your affairs (while still married) and talking about the negative effect your family have had on your mental health are two different things.

@Roussette

There are a lot of bitter and nasty people on this thread.

It’s probably more constructive to address specific posters or discussion points.

“There are a lot of bitter and nasty people on this thread” just sounds like vaguebooking or what have you.

I have addressed it. I've reported some truly vile posts.

I’ve had issues growing up. I’m planning on taking out a couple of billboards, GoogleAd/FB campaigns, filming a monologue outlining who I blame for various foibles I’ve encountered and then distributing printed newsletters locally with a full synopsis of what my issues are and who I blame for them, the various ways I perceive myself to be wronged in all myriad of ways and why I got off my face and partied as a teen.

Admire me.

Again, I don't see what the point is in talking about things which happened a quarter of a century ago. Charles and Di gave one interview each, and quickly regretted it. Harry has been running his mouth for months, with no end in sight.

I think doing interviews talking about your affairs (while still married) and talking about the negative effect your family have had on your mental health are two different things.

That sounds like a fairly arbitrary distinction to me.

What good is going to come out of Harry constantly slagging off his family in public? If his family damaged his 'mental health', then surely it's best to discuss it with them, or with a therapist? How is being bitter about them in front of the world going to help anyone?

Would you be happy if a family member took to the airwaves, or even to Facebook, to claim that you damaged their 'mental health'?

I'm sick to the back teeth of him. I wish he would go away!

The lack of education evident in these comments is exactly why people in the public high and positions of influence need to speak about mental health.

People here have no insight, knowledge or empathy. Its scary to think what some people in this thread would do or say if a person with a mental health concern came to them for help.

I think he's done the best he can with the shitty cards he has been dealt.

There is no amount of money on earth that would make me accept Harry's lot in life. I can't imagine how warped, lonely and bizarre it would be. How scared he must be for his family's physical safety given the level of vitriol directed at Megan. How traumatic it would be to lose a parent in the midst of cameras flashing and to then be pursued by those cameras without your permission for life.

I'm rooting for him, I hope he is happy.

Are you selling tickets to the Amelia666 show as well? Because you could.

Where to?

@Summercocktailsinthesnow Flying to VISIT a relative is completely different from flying to a funeral, you're being disingenuous. My own country won't allow anyone to visit a dying relative, but do consider funerals.

so why decide to launch it when your family are grieving and saying goodbye to someone so precious?
AGAIN, it wasn't launched when Phillip was in the hospital. And if you really think Harry and Meghan can call the shots over TV conglomerates, you are extremely naive. Harry and Meghan would have had precisely zero say when it aired.

The Queen is very far from okay by all accounts
what 'accounts' are they? Pray tell.

You are about to learn something about the Queen in the coming months
How do you know this? Or did you make this up on the spot?

Harry & Megan want Privacy and they left here to get away from the UK media ...... Why are they going on Opera doing 'tell all interviews' it was like a live stream of a trash magazine article.

I want privacy #rubbish

He said when he grew up it was like living in a zoo.... why is his son making appearances on podcasts and in tv shows.....

If Harry and Megan are so about the mental health why didn't they continue working to promote better mental health with the royal family?

Does anyone actually believe that Megan couldn't access mental health help? They'd have access to whatever help they wanted and it would all be 100% private.

Again, I don't see what the point is in talking about things which happened a quarter of a century ago

I doubt William and Harry would agree with you given their comments on the Dyson report.

Honestly, some people act like a bitter ex that they’ve broken up with...so vicious in such a personal way.

This is exactly how Harry is treating his family @Elementarymydearr

Can’t you see the similarities? People are mirroring his energy.

Not big on the royal family myself but this must be particularly hard for for William. He lost his mother too, and it looks like he's also "lost" his brother for the foreseeable future now.

I think you'd need to separate H & M to be able to help them with their MH problems effectively, individually. It's difficult to hear them both take no responsibility at all for their actions in life to date and any consequences thereof. Plenty of self-regard but no true self-awareness, I suspect they validate each other's perceptions of victim status.

My sister and I loved the idea of Meghan joining the royal family. My sister changed her mind after viewing the engagement interview (she's a trained/accredited therapist) and foresaw issues although she hoped she might be proved wrong. I held out a little longer before despair set in.

@DifferentHair

Great post. So agree.

Where should he go away to? His wife's home town? Oh no he's already there. The moon? Potentially Mars? Which would suit you O random one.
