Has Harry Completely Lost his mind?

I'm from a very dysfunctional family that does not claim to be anointed by god as rulers of an empire, and even despite that difference, I recognize the signs of dysfunction. The difficulties of direct communication of basic needs like affection, the use of a lot of passive-aggressive means of communication or the expectation for family members to just know what certain members (always the people at the top of the family hierarchy, which in the royals is easy to figure out) want or need and give it to them without complaint. There are golden child, scapegoat, and black sheep dynamics. You see a lot of enmeshment with family, especially around decisions like who you will marry and how and when you will have kids, and how they will be raised.

Yes, a lot of this is viewed as a normal part of being in the royal family. Does not make it less dysfunctional! Actually makes it worse because it's a self-reinforcing system that can't be change for argued against. In my own dysfunctional family, things actually are better for some of the the more recent generations because we have found ways to set boundaries and make other choices. It does result in some amount of estrangement (not total estrangement, but strained relationships with certain family members), but it is better for our children and has enabled us to make healthier choices for ourselves. In the royal family, setting those boundaries and making healthier choices gets second guessed not just by the family itself (which includes the monarch of the country you belong to) but also by Parliament and the press. That's insane!

He does not sound crazy to me. I do think having this play out in public may be something he later regrets. I well understand the desire to actually finally achieve clarity on these issues because I know what it's like to deal with gaslighting and passive aggressive communication your entire life and just want it to end. But the public declarations will likely escalate tensions and can't be taken back. Plus they drag in lots of strangers and that can confuse things.

But the actual things he's talking about and saying? Don't sound crazy to me. It sounds healthy. It sounds like he's been brainwashed by dysfunction most of his life and only recently discovered, through is family of choice, what functional, healthy relationships can look like. It takes time to acclimate.

But they still want to represent the Commonwealth and do his Magesty’s work. People are making incorrect assumptions. They don’t want to leave the monarchy they want to be the monarchy.

Harry and Megan need money, even if just for security. They have no marketable skills other than her acting. Either they sell all the dirt they have for as much as they can get or the go bust.

He has a platform to actually do good in the world. I wish he'd leave all this pettiness behind and follow his mother's example. Try to make the world a better place. Be known as the best of the royals for his acts, rather than his birth. That would get back at them far more than releasing more muck about them. Can you imagine how William would feel if Harry made himself the darling of the world like his mom? Harry has the charisma and platform to do that. He just needs to stop focusing on royal drama nonsense.

You mean the Duke and Duchess of Sussex!

The greatest part is they never have anybody call them that.

Harry has tons of training in etiquette and schmoozing. He could easily raise money for charities or advocate for causes. He's not without skills.

It’s so refreshing after the holidays when so many had to deal with their insane ralatives.

Why is all of this supposed to be in the dark, bring it to the light.

I don't know. Say it to THEM and move on. I'm really against airing every perceived family wrong in public. And, let's face it, everyone in the family has a completely different take on what happened--even when they experienced it together.

My family was happy--but I see now in our 50s my siblings and I differ on some past events and how we interpret them.

It’s the Royals that put it into the public. I’m all for hearing all sides. If the. Ritual press just stopped talking about them it will go away. If they keep putting sh!t out the should put their side out.

Please Charles, camila, William… they’re insane losers.

He’s 38, he’s been in the news since he was born. It great that he can finally get it off his chest.

Except now that he's opened his mouth everyone is questioning his sanity. So, not so great.

Not really. Most people understand.

The great thing about abuse is when the abused (who is clearly dealing with mental illness speaks out) the abusers just say, oh he’s crazy.

It’s straight out of the abusers playbook. So if you want to be played by the abusers, just go along with “oh he’s crazy”.

It’s why many rape victims can’t come forward. They are raped, they suffer from extreme mental illness and you can’t put them on the stand.

Good for him to stand up and take the punches like a champ.

You're living in a bubble. Most people are not understanding. Harry has turned himself into a joke.

Do rape victims out notices on Instagram saying they really want to continue to have s*x with their rapist but also be allowed to have s*x with other people? I mean I’m not trying to be rude just trying to follow your logic given what these two have actually published they would like to have happen.

If Harry had been raped it would be in the book. Your analogies are ridiculous.

Those are diminishing skills. Ten years down the road, completely detached from the origin of his popularity, do you think anyone would care about him? He'll be another JOhn Doe.

Rape victims often try to have relationships with their rapist, especially when it is incest.

Don’t apply your non abused logic to those that are abused.

I don't think he's lost his mind. I think he's just broken free from a jeweled prison. The royal family thought Meghan would give up everything to be one of them and didn't have the perspective that anyone might find their actions unhealthy. And I think having his wife be subjected to the same things that his mother was, and which ultimately caused her death, is very triggering for Harry. The royal family thinks it's all NBD but Harry views it as life or death. And after what happened to his mother, who is to argue with him? I actually respect him a lot for giving it all up for a semblance of a normal life. And I'm glad they're controlling their own narrative rather than letting the British press use misogyny and racism to turn Meghan into a Disney villain.

He has to make money somehow. Grandma died with a billion dollar estate and it's all going to a single grandkid.

And his family was getting death threats and the royal family wasn’t willing to pay for security for his kids. Wtf. So he’s banking enough now to cover that.

Wouldn’t his Taliban disclosures increase his security risk (and that of others)?
