Maté brought up passages from Harry’s memoir, Spare, in which he spoke about experimenting with substances, including marijuana.
- The royal revealed that his experience with marijuana was “different” because it “actually did really help me.”
- Prince Harry also spoke about using psychedelic drugs, which he described as the “cleaning of a windshield” that helped “remove life’s filters.”
- The Duke of Sussex said that his use of psychedelics was one of the fundamental parts of his life that changed him.
The Duke of Sussex’s talk with Dr. Maté was his first since an initial round of publicity interviews released around Jan. 10. 2023.
