Interesting article - Harry the trauma exhibitionist.

Jaberwok

I too would strongly advise people on here against accusing others on here of not understanding bereavement and despair. I can confidently say some do!

I don't if that's another dig at me but I've already responded since that original comment. I have never accused people of not understanding bereavement. I said people that respond to bereavement differently. I'm getting a little bit peed off with people twisting my words.

Jaberwok so right, some here do understand bereavement and despair.

calliste. You are accusing me of being a troll in a roundabout way

Perhaps RTFT?

I've been told I've made allegations that can't be proved. I don't think I have so there's obviously a difference of understanding so I think I'm entitled to ask for clarification

I will make one allegation though. I have been personally attacked. I've had my posting history brought up and told I write in similar style to another poster. That goes against talk guidelines. It's been hinted that I wasn't a Samaritan and if so I must low calibre.

I think It smacks of trying to push me off the thread because I'm not there just to criticise Harry.

I’m not going to waste my time listing them. You know full well.

I have better things to do than waste my time on this rubbish.

No I don't know what you're referring to and that's why I asked.

You were happy to accept that you were making points when Glorianny talked of them. I will change ‘points’ to ‘allegations’, of which you have made a good many - and been shot down each time.

What allegations?

Harris27

Just sick of it all now don’t really read much on them now.

😁
I think I know how you feel

Well it's 20 odd years since I was a Samaritan. Help for.Heroes was only started in 2007 sand we've come on leaps and bounds in understanding in PTSD since the early 2000 which is fantastic.

Oh, for goodness sake!

As I detailed in an earlier post, which presumably you didn't read, Help for Heroes is just one (and a very recent) charity which supports ex-service personnel with all kinds of trauma.

One charity was started in the 1880s and is still there to support those with problems today. I could provide a link if you are interested in extending your knowledge base about it.
There are very many others.

I’m afraid you’re not proving any of your ‘points’ WR.

I've mainly asked questions so I'm not sure which points in referring to. Please could you point out the ones you refer to?

Harry claims in 2013 there was no understanding of mental illness

Glorianny

WellRose you always know when you are proving your point on GN the posts become more and more personal. Sad but true.

You're right.

No, it’s when the posts descend to a farcical level!

You are not alone in your astonishment.

Let’s calm this pointless speculation down a bit.
I am reasonably confident that neither William, Harry, George, Charlotte or Louis was in the slightest bit aware of having their picture taken as a tiny bundle swathed in a lacy shawl on the steps of the hospital.
And without wishing to be guilty of any lèse majesté, I think it might be fair to assume that the mummies had managed to fit in a visit from their hairdresser.
So no trauma there- Phew! 🤣🤣🤣
As for speculating whether Harry may have Bulimia- why bother. It’s only your uneducated guess.
Mine - equally uneducated - is that he doesn’t.

@Callistemom. I've said that everyone's mental health is different so their experiences of bereavement so the opposite of accusing peop!e of not knowing about bereavement.

Not IP - up

Mollygo

*Foxygloves*I too have been a Sam for a long time-and I do not recognise WR’s attitude, either.

Foxygloves and Mollygo well done both of you for giving IP your time to help those in need.

I am astonished that someone such as WellsRose who claims to have been a Samaritan seems to be completely unaware of all the help available to ex-service men and women and no idea of the numerous contacts available, both official and voluntary.

I’m afraid you’re not proving any of your ‘points’ WR.

I watched William and Kate at St.David’s Cathedral yesterday,
such dignity .
