My eyes are tired. I thought it said HANDSHAKES half naked. I am thinking... in public? Like greeting someone at BP?

"Bridesmaid Dresses" Sounds like Kate was being over the top ridiculous. Meghan offered to have them altered. To text a bride before a wedding and complain about the bridesmaid dresses being ugly and share that your toddler is "crying" because they are so ugly. Sounds like a spoiled child and sister in law who clearly needs to learn some manners. Then argue that Kate's wedding designer agrees with her that the dress are too big - what, her supposedly superior dress designer should get to weigh in on Meghan's wedding dresses for little girls the week before the wedding? I don't know if I could stand having Kate for a sister in law - she sounds like a horror show. Well - turns out Catherine was right. Harry's book has opened the door for those involved to come out and say what happened. Here's the interview Meghan's tailor just gave. ( Not Catherine's tailor) and he confirms everything Catherine was saying in those texts - the dresses arrived 4 days before the wedding, there had been no fittings of the dresses, they were just made from measurements, ALL of the dresses were a mess and it wasn't just Charlotte's, all of the mothers had to take the bridesmaids in for alterations, and the tailors had to work until 10pm the day before the wedding. So Catherine offering her tailor seems like it would have been a big help, because Meghan's tailor DID agree that the dresses to use his words - "were a mess" and Catherine was clearly trying to avoid Meghan (and her) the embarrassment and bad press of Meghan's bridesmaids walking down the aisle in a multimillion dollar wedding in dresses that didn't fit. It also sounds like there's some texts that are being left out, it's clear Catherine is trying to tell Meghan how bad the dresses are but Meghan isn't "hearing' her, she's trying to tell her that it's a much bigger job than just getting the hem taken up. He also goes on to say that in his presence everyone was polite & co-operative, so "Meghan sobbing on the floor" when Harry got home (clearly he wasn't there helping) seems a tad dramatic. Who were the wedding planners? Meghan and her best friend at the time Jessica Mulroney (who of course Meghan has since had a falling out with...seeing any pattern here?) The whole dress thing is strange to me. It's the BRF. If Charlotte/Kate wanted a new dress, freaking just do it. This doesnt seem super strange to ask, esp if the dresses were that "messed up." Also, this is so out of my league. I cannot imagine crying over a dress, except for Catherine, just giving birth, who probably had to get dressed and drag a kid over for measurements. Hard pass.

And Charlotte was only 3! and the main point is you don't want your toddler bridesmaids melting down on the day because they hate their dresses. Little girls can be hard...there's a girl at work who tells us stories about her daughter and I think it's cute & funny because I don't have to deal with it, but she was telling us how she refused to leave the house the other day because she wanted to be a fairy, complete with tutu and wings. Had a melt down when her mother tried to talk her out of it and made her late for an appointment.

When my sister picked her up at the end of the day she came running out of the school dressed in the Princess outfit! She’d obviously been clever enough to smuggle the outfit to school, but forgot to change back before her mum saw her!

My friend has no idea where she gets it from, she's not very 'girly' herself and she also has another child, a boy, but she says her daughter is very stubborn about what she wears and it has to be very girly all the time. The night we went out she was telling us after she got dressed her daughter looked at her in horror and said "Oh mummy - no"

He appears to be completely self unaware. This link shares his thoughts on Paul Burrell, Diana's butler who wrote a book. www.aol.co.uk/news/harry-says-diana-ex-butler-000154644.htmlMummy’s former butler had penned a tell-all which actually told nothing,” he said. “It was merely one man’s self-justifying, self-centring version of events. “My mother once called this butler a dear friend, trusted him implicitly. We did too. Now this. Smh The hypocrisy of trashing someone for writing a self-justifying tell-all book IN A SELF-JUSTIFYING TELL-ALL BOOK.

It sounds like psychotherapy It's not psychotherapy! He's doing all the woo-woo ones, tapping, psychedelics, Ayahuasca. He's does think drugs are the answer - just self medicated ones instead of prescribed ones. He smokes pot & he drinks alcohol to excess...he says it repeatedly in his book. Check the Anderson Cooper interview and listen to him say it yourself It looks like his therapist does psychotherapy to me: www.sanjaoakley.com/There's also lots of research on psychedelics being used in therapy: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32098487/www.cnbc.com/2021/07/24/how-psychedelic-assisted-therapy-with-mdma-and-psilocybin-works.htmlJust endless research and articles so I won't link too much. But it's in it's infancy so maybe seen as woo woo to others at the moment?

But just to highlight some differences. Going on anti-ds can take multiple attempts at finding the right drug. Often you then might be on anti-ds for years/decades/forever and go on cycles of having to increase/decrease doses and change medicines. Psychedelics can often be narrowed down to limited types and can also be 1-3 doses and that might be enough. Psychedelics are also used with a lot of guidance which can help work through the psychotherapy part. Anti-ds can sometimes be prescribed by a GP and that's it. Unless the patient specifically pursues therapy, the drug is 'expected' by some to do the work. So the word 'pumping' can be very descriptive of how people feel with traditional medicine vs a much 'lighter' approach with psychedelics. And of course I am generalising here.

I should change the title of this thread bc now he’s gone on Colbert and I think a morning show with Michael S (football player - can’t spell his name). And he’s trying to walk back stuff he published in his book (ie the Taliban killing). I saw on Reddit today BP may have squashed a story of him assaulting a girl, beating her. I can’t imagine they would have or if they had gotten away with it. I kept waiting to see what comes out in the news… ugh.
Also Pres Regan’s daughter made a powerful statement today about wishing she had stayed silent until she could look thru a wider lens. It was a really powerful piece. I can’t link it bc I don’t have a sub to The NY Times but I did see parts on IG. It was very interesting.

Hopefully this will be mirrored by Harry in twenty years when his son releases his own explosive memoir.

But it's in it's infancy so maybe seen as woo woo to others at the moment? This is not that uncommon and there has been some who have had tremendous PTSD or trauma that this has helped. Dave Navarro - the guitarist from Janes Addiction has been doing some similar treatment with LSD and it has really helped him with the trauma of his mother being murdered. If you haven't seen the documentary on this, I highly recommend it, "Mourning Son". Horrible trauma and it really affected him.

Anyone thinking of writing a book to get all their truth out there should read this multiple times.
