Prince Harry reveals he ‘slipped into depression’ after moving to Canada

Mentioning that adrenaline crash during a MasterClass reveals a very specific psychological pressure from that period. It is interesting how the move to Vancouver Island triggered such an immediate physical reaction after years of operating under intense public scrutiny.

The two-week timeframe for the depression seems quite short given the magnitude of relocating countries and stepping away from family structures. It might be more accurate to view that period as the initial acute phase of a much longer adjustment process.

That detail about needing the adrenaline just to function around the house is really interesting - sounds like he'd gotten so used to crisis mode that normal life felt impossible without it. Recognising that pattern in yourself is half the battle! 💙
