The Me You Can't See

I was hoping that this would contain some tangible solutions for real people dealing with mental health struggles. Resources, steps to take with a family member or yourself, different modalities of therapy available. Etc.

If anything this series would be extremely unhelpful for someone struggling with their mental health.

None of the extremely privileged people interviewed seem to have gotten a grip on their own mental health struggles. If people with access to the best health care available cannot over come their difficulty, what was the point of this series? To show people there is no hope?

From my point of view this show was unhelpful if not detrimental.

I felt almost upset watching people who clearly are struggling being exploited for TV ratings by Oprah Winfrey. A talk show hostess not a psychologist I might add even though she is oddly presenting herself as such?

I would give this series a miss.

What a bunch of pretentious nonsense from Harry. Could Oprah have found a less relatable person as her star to discuss mental health? I feel bad for some of the other contributors who had legitimately dangerous and disturbing stories people could relate to, because what they had to say was sidelined by the more prominent and petulant royal rubbish. I'm sorry, but while I can understand Harry's life wasn't ideal, it's was far from abusive or dangerous. The whole thing felt contrived, like the other guests were there to obfuscate the true purpose of the show, i.e., dishing royal dirt and gossip for ratings. It never should have been green lit and I hope Apple + loses enough money so they don't repeat this mistake.

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.

This show felt very contrived coming from a the state of a very privileged individual being interviewed by another very privileged individual. Although I know mental illness is not a structure for entertainment, nor does mental illness discriminate against social status or class, I was hoping to gain some insight or actual remedies for mental illness for those who can't afford proper therapy. But this honestly just felt incredibly whiny, like a man with a vendetta against his family. And it was agonizingly boring. Maybe it's because I'm an American, and do not understand the inner working of the Royal Family. But whining, complaining, and not getting one's way- all under the disguise of mental illness to air out grievances for monetary gain- just feels slimy. Not at all recommending this show to anyone. The glowing 10 star reviews must just be fan girls since this makes no sense.

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.
