Hannah Brown is reflecting on her mental health, thanks toOprah WinfreyandPrince Harry.
On Friday,The Bachelorettealum opened up about watching the pair’s new docuseriesThe Me You Can’t Seeon her Instagram Story. “Prince Harryand Oprah guide the conversation so well, and the people who they interview just make you feel so seen and heard if you struggle with any kind of depression, anxiety, mental illness of any kind,” Brown said.
“It’s just really powerful,” Brown said of the series. “Honestly, it made me feel a little emotional because I could feel all the feelings from it, because I understood so much. But I thought it’d be great for anyone who sometimes has a hard time expressing what it’s like. They do a wonderful job explaining it.”
Brown added, “So, if you have a family, friend, loved one that just can’t understand, this would be a great resource for them to check it out, and for you to check out yourself, to not feel so alone.”
