Unfortunately, he is still and always will be in the public eye. Sadly for him, he chose a wife who craves it while he looks to be traumatised by it. I hope he finds peace 🙏

[@valkimura1053]

That's half-true, I think. We've learned that today's society does not patronize those who are willing to damage their own families on a global stage. They generally won't patronize those caught lying or caught grossly exaggerating, either. Society in this way can set healthy boundaries and teach lessons. I think the problem that Harry had was trying to make the public his "therapist". He saw his mother try it, and it was successful for her in terms of great public support. But this is the age of social media. If Diana did the same today, people would confront her about traumatizing her children by airing her husband's sins to the world. They would ask how she could expose them to gossip, expose them to taunting in school, and to risk fracturing an emotional bond with their father. They would question why she was putting her emotional needs first, at the expense of her children's. Voices would bring tough love, as well as support, hate, craziness from the human family. Harry is receiving the overwhelming realities of the world that she did not. And hopefully, he'll come to accept responsibility for inviting it all in.

Not just a prince. Would you go to a priest that was a sinner, or tune into a newsreader that didn't read the news, watch a footballer that played tennis instead of football? It's fine if a person wants to change their position in life. Harry, however, wanted to be treated and rewarded with the gilded gloves with which a prince is treated but doesn't want the role. Not just him but all around the world, you don't get both. The money or the bag? The chicken or the egg? When he chose to step away, that's fine. But to chose to step away and then get ratty because you haven't got a house being kept for you here, staff paid for here, clothes there, security everywhere, and the cherry on top "my father has cut us off financially ", 5 million a year to tide you over! Again, no one pays the newsreader who doesn't read the news. Harry had audacious expectations while simultaneously saying, "I never asked to be a prince, but reward me as if I am one forever more."

Things he says can be refuted, by his own words, from one year to the next, one decade to the next, from one interview to the next, etc. They can easily be fact checked, and people do, to make a point. It's called proven lies.

A lot of people have trauma but it’s how we deal with it that matters.

I don’t think it’s necessary to get personal. After all, you don’t know me or my background. Just to clarify my original comment… I don’t talk about myself often, but I’m about the same age as Harry and I suffer from PTSD from my childhood (both my parents are narcs, histrionic too). My trauma was the result of events like the suicide of my biological father and constant physical and psychological abuse until I left home at the age of 18, so it’s safe to say that I understand triggers, trauma and the fight or flight response. I’ve been in and out of different therapies over the course of my life and I’ve also seen how my siblings live with their own trauma and the different paths we’ve all taken. So my comment was based on my personal experiences, it’s also my opinion, so as I said earlier, you can choose just to scroll on without responding.

Everyone in life has issues. The point of the British Royal Family is to give their people strength. To “never complain, and never explain”. To “keep calm and carry on” As Harry did not live up to this mantra, as his brother has, and certainly as the Queen has, he doesn’t belong in the royal family.

[@proverbs3150]

I noticed that Rangan mentioned “friction” in his family. He did not go into detail because he is mature and has wisdom. They worked it out as a family and are closer now. Once betrayal and mistrust takes place within a family, it is often never recovered.

[@Lucysmom26]

Thank you for saying this. I have been sympathetic to Harry since he left the royal family and I eagerly bought Spare the same week it was released. It almost feels like I read a different book to the one Dr. Mate read. Nothing about the man in Spare says "mentally healthy, an example of someone doing the hard work to overcome struggles and trauma." His worst and pettiest attacks are saved for his brother, who went through exactly the same trauma Harry did and who is not responsible (neither is Harry) for the dysfunctional family he comes from. When he had the chance to show grace in the book, he did not. When he had the chance to take responsibility for some of his mistakes, he shied away. Honestly the book made me dislike him. Working through trauma is one thing. Blaming everyone around you (for money, no less) is another. I'm genuinely shocked that Gabor Mate, whose work I feel is very important, seems to have bought it so thoroughly. If others had treated Harry the way he treats them in Spare, everyone would see how terrible it is. But because he's Prince Harry it's OK? I don't get it.

[@ALT-vz3jn]

I agree with you. Harry is extremely self-entitled and shows arrested development; he’s making a public spectacle of airing his dirty laundry. It’s sad that his father didn’t give him enough attention to get him some mental health help when he needed it as a teen, but Harry is almost a middle-aged man, there’s no excuse at this point for him to behave so immaturely at this point.

How much our children need a hug. Depriving them of this brings several consequences.

I don’t follow stories about Harry, but I do read and listen to Gabor Mate. I can certainly relate to the difficulties that a family member can experience when they stop participating in the dysfunction. It is very difficult to remain connected to people who are stuck in denial and refuse to recognise the ‘love’ they are offering is actually very damaging. If you care for a person, you make an effort to understand them. When you understand that your treatment of them is harmful, you make a commitment to change. When you prioritise your love for a person, it is easy to change. But when you have other, higher priorities, you will sacrifice the person who is highlighting the problem. You will sacrifice them and you will claim that they are the problem. Harry is a scapegoat. The scapegoat is not the problem. The problem is the problem.

[@iamlpinthe312]

Let’s be clear about a few things… Harry alone wasn’t traumatized by the death of his mother. Unlike his brother, Harry didn’t have the pressure on him of being a future king and having to comport yourself accordingly. He was given so much slack from the public for his transgressions, from the Nazi uniform outfit to the drug use , crazy Vegas, etc. He could have left the Royal family without writing such personal ( and subjective) things in a ‘tell all ‘ and without dragging the family through the trenches. If he actually lived out the privacy that he claims he so desperately wants then there’s room for empathy. He has done quite the opposite. Regardless of the reasons,he is not a child. He has the access to the best therapy money can buy. There are no excuses for his behavior. I have lived through the wreckage of a narcissist and it’s never enough for them.

[@kessa892]

This is a really invalidating and insensitive response. Are you saying that Harry isn't entitled to his trauma because his brother was, at the time, a notch above him in the line to the throne? All royals (including those that aren't second to the throne) have immense pressures on them to conform to their social roles lest they be hammered by the media for not living up to expectations. Every member of this family has been given slack for one thing or another - it's the reality of their privilege. One thing i'll say is that Harry has lived his entire life in the spotlight. For decades, the tabloid media have gotten away with distorting and mischaracterizing the truth about Harry and his family. So, I understand why he has decided that he wants to finally take control of the narrative of his own life in a public way. Contrary to what everyone says, he hasn't dragged his family through the trenches. He's never denigrated or belittled anyone in his family - the media does that. It seems that people just like to think that because he is spotlighting a side of his family that is less than perfect. Even more, Harry is doing the unthinkable in British society: talking publicly about his mental health issues. As a side note, empathy is not conditional. If you're naturally empathetic, your empathy is given freely without judgment, no matter the situation. You don't have to agree with someone or support their behaviour to empathise with them.

Harry has been incredibly open and vulnerable about his experience with losing his mother and its highly insensitive to even suggest an ulterior motive when you have zero evidence to back up your claim. Empathy is NOT conditional. I won't even press this point even further because only empaths will understand that expressing compassion is a natural response to hearing about somebody's struggles. If you don't feel that way, then I'm sorry - you sound like you haven't been modeled unconditional compassion from those around you. I understand Dahmer had a horrible upbringing which contributed significantly to his sociopathy - I feel compassion for this and I'm sorry to anyone that has had to face abuse or dysfunction in their childhood.

All validation refers to is the process of being understood and accepted by your family and peers. Giving validation is showing that you care about someone. If your spouse is upset about something, do you shut them out and tell them to get over themselves? Or do you sit with them, listen to their feelings and concerns, accept them for what they are and help them to feel better? The latter is validation. Narcissists need a constant supply of validation, it's true, because they often don't receive any as children. They're willing to use and hurt people to get it. This is not to say that all children who don't receive validation turn out to be narcissists. Based on what I've seen, Harry now seems very emotionally grounded - narcissists rarely are. He's definitely come a long way. Btw, vulnerating yourself by sharing your personal story (as Harry has done) is not a symptom of narcissism! If so, then that means that anyone who has ever written an autobiography is a narcissist, which is obviously absurd. I'm truly sorry to hear about your sibling, aunt and uncle - that must have been incredibly difficult for your family to go through. It's true that life goes on and among the best ways to do so is to grieve openly with loved ones. Grief is an important part of heartbreak recovery and its important to get it right from the start so it doesn't transform into 'complicated grief' - when painful emotions don't lessen with time. It's apparent that Harry was dealing with complicated grief for a long time. By going to therapy and doing the work, Harry is taking responsibility of his feelings. He's even gone a step further by sharing with the world that it's ok to not be ok when you don't receive the right support during times of grief. Harry is certainly not the last one to speak on the subject. There is a major stigma around mental illness and many are unwilling to even acknowledge it. It was revealed in the interview that Harry and William, together, wanted to campaign in raising awareness around mental health struggles - surely the first in the family to do so. Unfortunately the Queen disapproved and they were told to focus on something else. It's heartening to see that Harry has continued to speak on something that is clearly important to him now that he has the freedom to do so.

When high profile speak out about what they have been through they inspire others to do the same and help us know that we are not the only one. I really admire famous people who use their fame to help others. I recommend the series he did with Oprah called The Me You Can't See for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Whether or not publicising his pain is helping Harry heal is something that only time will tell. The one thing we can say about members of the Royal Family - with all its quirks - is that they have lived very long lives, and generally over a period of time found themselves. If stress and lack of love kills, it is certainly not killing any of them. It is to be seen whether Harry achieves the same outcome or he crashes and burns. My life experience tells me that trying to resolve trauma in public only exacerbates it and turns it into entertainment. Whether Dr Mate helped Harry or turned him into a spectacle is something that we will only know in 10 years time.

Harry's circumstances are so rare and unique that for most of us it is almost unrelatable other than relating to a parent dying or unhappy marriage or dysfucntional family and lies etc.But Harrys's circumstances are so far from most peoples lives and the soliders he worked with and is supposed to be reoresenting have barely had access to housing and MH treatment.the maount of soliders who die by suicide is higher than those killed in battle.

I can’t imagine what it must’ve been like to grow up in an institution like the RF. I would say a rarefied environment like that lacked expressions of love and warmth. The focus is more on public duty and service. If the RF and the people around them identified with their roles very seriously, it would be a very surreal experience to deal with so much formality, protocol, masks and personas. I’d say “gilded cage” is apt. But also utterly surreal like puppets in a theatre On top of that the relationship with the public is disturbing from my point of view, where they are treated as Icons- venerated and separate to, but also a sense of ownership by, the general public. People projecting their own selves, ideals, devotion and love or hate on to them all the time. I’m saying it’s disturbing to be having that kind of experience and relationship with the world I’m obviously speaking from my perspective as an outsider. Imagine being born into that, it’s all normalised. But you’d know something wasn’t right, something is missing. How can any of us judge Harry really, we have no idea. It was/is a different reality he was born into A lot of anger and venom is directed at him for speaking out against his family. I haven’t followed this much or read his book…but I’ve read a fair few comments here and elsewhere about Harry hurting his “loving family”. This is quite complex as there seems to be a lot of projection and idealisation going because they are the/ “our” ROYAL family. “How dare he!?” Not saying they weren’t loving in the best way they could, you could actually say that about every family. But of course they nonetheless can cause a huge amount of damage and pass on generational trauma. I understand I’m going to be lacking nuance about the queen saying they can’t be half in/ half out. However that is also a common pattern in dysfunctional families. You will be scapegoated and cut off if you don’t tow the family line. If Harry’s behaviour is a little worrying at times as I’ve heard people say, I wouldn’t be surprised. I’d say he’s having a colossal culture shock having so much freedom, and adjusting to “normal” life as a civilian. He’s also had a monumental loss with being effectively cut off from his family and the RF institution. He could be having an identity crisis, as anyone would who has gone though so much change. Especially difficult in a public facing role where there is so much judgment directed at him. I’d say give him some time and he’ll find himself. He’ll gather up his true inner strength and power, beyond anything he had when in the RF. I believe he’s got a VERY big role, yet to be played out. He is an instigator of change. And that is always going to be messy, chaotic and met with resistance, especially so when going against the force of the monarchy. But I do believe ultimately change is inevitable, and also needed. And Harry is still playing a big part in the monarchy, whether he is recognised as a member of it or not. He is really spotlighting the monarchy for our attention. Whether the monarchy will ultimately survive is the question, but it will definitely need to evolve and adapt.

How is what you @pdias8469 said Not Hateful? Harry’s book is ADMITTEDLY full of lies about his friends and family, and he has violated their privacy even as he is screaming to Be given his own. You’re willing to judge his family with hate in your heart whilst also proclaiming that Everyone must be as virtuous as 👼you 👺

Yes Prince Philips mother who was a Princess in the Greek Royal family and they were expelled from Greece and she had a breakdown but then was diagnosed with "schizophrenia"and put into an asylum for years.She then came out though and became a nun and helped shelter Jewish people during the 2nd WW.She became a truely remarkable woman which just goes to show that this so called "schizophrenia"is another bogus diagnosis as she managed to recover from what is considered "unrecoverable disease"requiring lifelong medication!!

I was also raised without physical touch. I don’t feel deprived at all. But I married a man who was extremely absent in the physical touch and words of affirmation areas. That I did resent. I put as much physical touch into my children until they didn’t want it. I have one child who didn’t want to be hugged and today she doesn’t like physical touch even when her husband puts his arm around her. I think some people just don’t need it as much or even like it. I am not one to hug much except my grandchildren. I love them up to bits but they never liked it much either. It’s so dependent on your personal love language and need.

[@martinadewsnap2337]

'I was also raised without physical touch.' I don’t feel deprived at all???? But I married a man who was extremely absent in the physical touch and words of affirmation areas.'

You have obviously suffered some form of trauma from it.

[@katiehill619]

@rosehill9537 not even with a gun to my head. Dr. Mate presented at our hospital a few times over the years....he's got some great attributes, but he's not a psychiatrist - he's an addictions guy. So I don't consider him a therapist, don't feel he was actually doing therapy, nor was I referring to him. Just noting what several professionals have pointed out about talk therapy methods and how badly they have served Harry. It's pretty obvious

[@rosehill9537]

@katiehill619 so u are commenting on a video u won't watch? What other experts? Have they spoken to Harry as making any claims about his therapy experience without consultation isn't clinically sound opinion as they have zero idea how he actually is. Unlike Gabor who has spoken to Harry personally. They would be just cashing in on the anti Harry narrative. We have already seen and had other so called experts exposed as liars for hire when it comes to the Sussexes.

[@fionanov1948]

If, dear, you listen to the intervew, H. does not consider himself a “victim”. The best “therapy” was to seek help, drop the royal handcuffs, leave a dysfunctional family, speak up, make his own business and family decisions, marry, have his own family and want a better more loving life for his children in a beautiful part of California. Good choice on all fronts.

[@shannonsnowwhite2301]

A question I ask adults as well as teenagers is if you could describe in 4 words what it was like growing up as a child in your environment with your caregivers/parents what words would you use to describe your experience? Very eye opening the words that come up. Part of my long drawn out healing (continued) process in understanding my own life with what the environment looked like for me growing up with my parents was not a very loving environment as a child. The world will ask you to ‘be strong’ and after years or carrying on In strength, weakness must take place and tied strings must be cut in the process. I realized the triggers in my life that were repeatedly perpetuating the inflammation taking shape in my body that would become chronic. I eventually became sick and realize that if I don’t continue to remove distractions that effect me negatively out of my life in order to preserve myself for as long as my energy and time left on earth will permit me, my life expectancy will shorten further for the heartache I’ve endured in suffering for in the deck of cards I was dealt. As humans, let us not walk around earth in auto-pilot mode. What we see in others is what we see in our self. Reflections. That is if you consider yourself to be human. Any kind will do.

This sad drama we look at it from a another country as whole British nation having a blind eye on emotional mental health issues and childhood trauma. There's no compassion or empathy from Royal family members, public or media to Harry and his family. Harry is a good example of person who went through childhood truma and still suffering mental health issues but try to empower others by his book and interview but it failed. When it comes to Crown no compassion for weak emotions and feelings. You need to be tough and brave. The duty to country come first. They forget Royal family humans with feelings. They need to have strict Occupational Health & Safety policies for Royal family on mental health issues as Public Servants. They are working royals should allowed to have stress leave. May be they have already.

"taken aim" at his family. That is a direct quote of the media narrative. That narratove is to shift the conversation. He spoke of them cause that's his lived his experience. Of course they are mentioned. He spoke on his trauma his healing. Please try to see the media narrative. it's toxic to the real conservation going on.

[@Angelabout1]

I too lost my mother & sister at Harry's age, in a car accident as well! Yes it took years for the healing to begin! You can't go on live TV and expect all the truth to come out when looking for views and money! Secondly I could not start healing until I dealt with my addictions! You can't be stoned out of your mind expecting wholeness! That's the therapy I was taught! Also to be presently in a dysfunctional family let alone what he went through with his RF certainly does not help! People comment how Harry was never touched, give me a break there is a lot of evidence to the contrary !Part of Harry's healing (so he says) was the constant flashes of photographers, yet he has never had it worse with his wife in Cali, Hollywood no less! The day you stop blaming everyone for your life decisions, is when the true healing begins! It's called insight! You can't be yourself until you're truly yourself, off drugs!

[@kessa892]

Maybe during your next session, you could discuss with your therapist how to have a little more empathy and be less a little less judgmental. True healing also starts when you stop trying to find the faults in other people's lives and stop invalidating people's trauma. Also, he said that he takes these drugs in appropriate doses and within a safe environment. It helps to reconnect with himself, who the hell am I to suggest he's lying? Idk why people are acting like he's shooting up with dirty needles in a back alley. Also, I'm sorry to hear about your mother and sister. I would think with the years of healing you've undergone you would know that everybody has different ways of healing. The ayahuasca is only one facet of what seems to be a much larger system of healing for Harry.
