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.
