Current Affairs Harry and Meghan Part 3: I can't think of a snappy subtitle

[peteblue]

Wow, this thread got very serious all of a sudden......

 

[Jonte]

Can anybody direct me to the ‘Have a go at the Champagne Socialists’ thread.

Asking for a bored friend.

 

[arminisgod]

She’s calling them out for being a horrible institution when for all intents and purposes, they’re a horrible institution. Don’t see why she’s getting blamed for all this.

Is she? Seemed to be the only thing she was pissed off about is that her son won't be a prince and the crown won't pay for their secruity

 

[Mr. White]

Attention seeking? Are you freaking kidding me? Do you have any idea how hard it can be for people to speak out on their mental health? I’ve had friends and family who’ve struggled in the past but wouldn’t admit to having a problem till they were on the brink

Yes, I understand 100%... and I know how hard it is to speak out. I suffer from a mental health condition. The only people who know are doctors. My family and friends have no idea... and they never will as I hide it well. I'd rather take it to my grave than tell anyone. I'm a 'stiff upper lip' kind of guy.

So, when people like Meghan Markle find it so easy to publicly talk to the whole world about mental health issues, while being paid millions, I'm sceptical...

Arguing in a thread about Megan Markle and Prince Harry!

Right so im taking 2 things from this

Because you hide your mental health issues, you think she and everyone else should? Only weak people talk about these things?

Because she's rich and famous, she shouldnt have mental health issues? Thats for the poor nobody's

Gotcha!

I'm saying that people with genuine mental health condition's generally don't get paid millions of pounds to tell Oprah Winfrey.

Most people aren't super famous and mates with Oprah Winfrey

 

[Charro]

Can agree on that! I disagree with the method but not the net result haha

As you said, he should’ve been sacked long before all this anyway.

LBC beckons for him now.

So your the leading authority on mental health issues and how to and how not to express them?

Have you got a list of people or places that are acceptable for people to admit their problems?

The pubs are closed mate.....

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Then why do it?

If they were happy and truly wanted to get away from the press and enjoy privacy, they could.

Instead, they went as big and public as possible.

Her motive is clearly fame and money.

Maybes because she’s been vilified by the British press and royal family and wanted to respond. Could be loads of reasons. Money isn’t likely to be one as they’ll have tonnes of high profile contacts. Don’t think they really need to get more famous to be honest either. Think you’ve chosen the wrong horse to back here but I know you won’t give an inch so I’ll leave it there.
Always find it mad how I either massively agree or disagree with your posts. lol

Did I say was a 'leading authority'? No. I said what works for me.

As for your second question, https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/your-mental-health/looking-after-your-mental-health A million pound chat shows with Oprah Winfrey isn't suggested... not my words ! Don't shoot the messenger!
