Trying everything to heal. Prince Harry revealed why he turned to psychedelics to help with his grief following Princess Diana’s death.
“I would never recommend people to do this recreationally,” Harry, 38, said during a 60 Minutes interview, which aired on Sunday, January 8, when speaking about his use of psychedelics and psilocybin mushrooms. “But doing it with the right people if you are suffering from a huge amount of loss, grief, or trauma, then these things have a way of working as a medicine.”
The Duke of Sussex told journalist Anderson Cooper that the drugs did help him find peace years after Diana died in 1997 after getting in a car crash in Paris.
“For me they cleared the wind screen, the misery of loss,” Harry explained. “They cleared away this idea that I had my head that my mother — that I needed to cry to prove to my mother that I missed her, when, in fact, what she wanted was for me to be happy.”
The Archewell cofounder noted that he felt a “weight” on his chest “for so many years” because he was unable to cry following his mom’s death.
The prince, who was 12 years old when Diana passed away, continued: “I was constantly trying to find a way to cry.” He told Cooper, 55, that he would try and “muster up” memories of his mother by watching videos of her in hopes that he would cry.

The former military pilot remembered having panic attacks every time he saw a camera or went out in public as a result of the trauma.
