During an interview with the traumatologist Dr. Gabor Maté, Saturday March 4, Prince Harry revealed that he had urged the members of his family to undergo therapy.
It was a special interview. Prince Harry gave an interview to Canadian doctor Gabor Maté, an expert in trauma, this Saturday, March 4. The interview, broadcast live on social networks, had as its main theme resilience and the loss of a loved one. During the conversation between the doctor and the prince exiled in California, the topics of loss, grief and personal healing were discussed. In particular, the Duke of Sussex explained that he did not see himself as a victim and that he had “tried to encourage everyone” in his family to seek therapy.
“I suddenly realized that I had learned a new language. And the people around me didn’t seem to speak that language,” Prince Harry said during the interview with Dr. Gabor Maté. “So I felt more left out, and then I told my therapist, ‘Okay, I have a problem,'” he continued. William’s younger brother had started therapy at 28 because he felt “on the verge of hitting someone” in addition to anxiety about royal commitments, the Daily Mail said. Now he has been in new therapy for “four or five years.” “I feel a huge responsibility not to pass on any trauma or negative experiences that I had as a child or as a man growing up,” he recounted during the interview.
Brainwashing
“It [the therapy sessions, ed. note] is working for me, and I’m starting to get back to the point of trauma and being able to unravel and unpack everything so that I can now live a really authentic life, be really happy and be a better father to my children,” Prince Harry related. Before adding, “But at the same time, I’m feeling more and more distant from my loved ones and my family.” In his book The Substitute, published last January, the thirty-year-old said that his brother Prince William, did not see these sessions in the same light. According to the eldest son of King Charles III, the Duke Sussex would be a victim of “brainwashing” by his therapist.
