The Duke of Sussex warned Prince Harry that the addiction of social media is more dangerous than alcohol and drugs, during a discussion on the mental health of young people.
Prince Harry was on a visit to the headquarters of the non-profit organization Youngmin Christian in West London on Wednesday to meet representatives of mental health organizations for young people.
"Social media are more dangerous than drugs and alcohol, because they are not subject to rules or regulations," Prince Harry was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail newspaper on Thursday.
"But now we are in a good phase because everyone here has the opportunity to make a real difference so that young people are less connected to their mobile phones."
"They can connect with their phones as they want, but they should also have human communication, because without that human communication you will not have anyone to talk to if you have a problem, and the only place you will go is the Internet and you may be bullied" (abuse and abuse) ).
"Every one of us has mental health, good mental health and bad health, and if you suffer from mental health, bad mental health will affect everyone around you."
Harry pointed to the need to focus on the successful stories of young people overcome their mental problems, explaining that he met young people overcome their problems and have become normal lives.
The Duke and Duke Duchess account was opened on the Intergram website to share photos on Tuesday night, and the account had a million followers shortly after its inauguration.
