Prince Harry has spoken about using drugs, such as cannabis, to help him cope with past "traumas". The Duke of Sussex admitted to regular drug-taking in his book, Spare.
In the memoir, he described how in 2015 while living in Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace, he smoked cannabis. He talked more about his drug use in a live interview on Saturday (March 4) with Dr Gabor Mate, author of The Myth Of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture.
Speaking in the interview, Harry said: “(Cocaine) didn’t do anything for me, it was more a social thing and gave me a sense of belonging for sure, I think it probably also made me feel different to the way I was feeling, which was kind of the point. Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me.”
