helped anyone else? I read his book Spare. He talks about his denial, grief and anger after his mother died. About how he was a mess for years.
My father died by suicide 5 years ago. Since then I have been angry a lot of the time, I have never really enjoyed anything. I didn't smoke before. I started chain smoking after his death. All my jobs, friendships and relationships never seemed to go well.
In his book Harry talks about being angry about his mother's death. That is how I felt I've been for the last five years: angry, and irritable.
I did get therapy for a month after my dad's death.
Reading Prince Harry's book, I really recognised a lot of the things that he went through after his mum's death.
It made me see that I need to really do a lot more to heal from my dad's death - to help myself. I am now doing journaling, reading books about people who experienced suicide. I am just doing more to keep on top of my mental health. I feel reading Harry's book helped me. Did it help anyone else who lost a parent/relative?
