The Me You Can't See

This show felt very contrived coming from a the state of a very privileged individual being interviewed by another very privileged individual. Although I know mental illness is not a structure for entertainment, nor does mental illness discriminate against social status or class, I was hoping to gain some insight or actual remedies for mental illness for those who can't afford proper therapy. But this honestly just felt incredibly whiny, like a man with a vendetta against his family. And it was agonizingly boring. Maybe it's because I'm an American, and do not understand the inner working of the Royal Family. But whining, complaining, and not getting one's way- all under the disguise of mental illness to air out grievances for monetary gain- just feels slimy. Not at all recommending this show to anyone. The glowing 10 star reviews must just be fan girls since this makes no sense.

I have fought depression most of my adult life. This was a huge let down. I feel it is simply a spectacle for the now one trick pony Harry and not an indepth meaningful look into therapy and understanding of mental health. Sadly it was Oprah having a show and tell with her new product. Roll up roll up let's look at the broken prince.

What a bunch of pretentious nonsense from Harry. Could Oprah have found a less relatable person as her star to discuss mental health? I feel bad for some of the other contributors who had legitimately dangerous and disturbing stories people could relate to, because what they had to say was sidelined by the more prominent and petulant royal rubbish. I'm sorry, but while I can understand Harry's life wasn't ideal, it's was far from abusive or dangerous. The whole thing felt contrived, like the other guests were there to obfuscate the true purpose of the show, i.e., dishing royal dirt and gossip for ratings. It never should have been green lit and I hope Apple + loses enough money so they don't repeat this mistake.

Extremely disappointed in this. It could have been done so much better- especially from a production standpoint. I didn't like the way the episodes were broken up. I would have liked to see each person get their own segment to tell their story and elaborate more on what worked/didn't work. Also, if no amount of money or privilege has helped any of them, where does that leave us common folk? What did actually help these wealthy celebrities? They are all still struggling with their millions in their wallets while living in big mansions- none of us can relate to that. That makes me not want to get therapy- not that the avg Joe can afford therapy anyways. Also, big difference between mental health (reading a book, self care, healthy hobbies) versus mental illness (diagnosis, medication, etc.). Prince Harry is still struggling after being vocal about his issues years ago- so has nothing worked? Can he elaborate on what did/why not? I'll trade his troubles for mine any day.

This topic could have been a magnificent and informative documentary however missed the mark. Appears to be scripted and over edited turning it into a Hollywood b-grade drama about the privileged and elite. How they 'suffered' but ultimately self-promote their own success; mental illness and mental health is more serious and complex than that. Access to health services can be challenging and sometimes inaccessible for many of the community who do not have the resources, connections or funds available. The credibility of some featured in this production also does not appeal to legitimate argument. Overall I consider this to be tinsel and trimmings without any solid structure or foundation. Belongs in the tabloid section, not a serious educational piece.
