On World Mental Health Day 2020, Meghan Markle spoke out for the first time about being the most trolled person on the internet in 2019. This past Saturday she spoke to Teenage Therapy Podcast about her struggle with being the target of innumerous negative comments on every social media platform available.
Markle said in the interview, "Now eight months of that I wasn't even visible. I was on maternity leave or with a baby but what was able to just be manufactured and churned out, it's almost unsurvivable. That's so big you can't even think about what that feels like because I don't care if you're 15 or 25 if people are saying things about you that aren't true what that does to your mental and emotional health is so damaging."
Teenage Therapy Podcast is hosted by five teenage friends and is based in California. They have posted the enlightening conversation on social media promoting the podcast by saying, "In honour of World Mental Health Day, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex sat down with us for a conversation about prioritizing mental health, removing the stigma around the issue, and how we can all contribute to a healthier world: physically, mentally, emotionally, holistically."
The teenagers had nothing but praise for the famous duo,” Some of the sweetest and most genuine people out there. Extremely thankful they were interested in our work and took the time out of their day to support us.”
