The Me You Can't See

Celebrities have access to good mental healthcare. Average tax-paying citizens don't always have this access for their mental healthcare. Society is tired of the rich and famous telling narratives of struggle in order to make bank. So many people struggle and cannot afford good mental healthcare. This show was created to make money for the rich while the rest of the world continues to struggle.

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.

This is a positively re-energizing show and does encourage anyone (and everyone) to see help for their mental health issues. The best part is the recognition it gives that everyone suffers some form of mental health crises. However, the show drowns in pity-party and feels more depressing at some point. To be honest, I am not happy about Prince Harry joining this show to complain, complain, and yet again complain about his upbringing, telling some shaded truths, etc. That just isn't the essence of this discussion, and it is very distracting. One annoying fact is the weird belief that somehow it should be wrong for people to mourn our loved ones at a heightened emotional level--when my whole world felt like it crumbled when my mother died, I drew strength in the words, love, and empathy of others. Dealing with mental health issues does require a recognition of where we are, letting people in, sharing in other people's stories, not blaming other people tirelessly, but certainly finding a way forward through love, forgiveness, compassion, and truth.

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.
