A young Prince Harry watched videos of Diana to try and teach himself how to cry - but couldn't.
The Duke of Sussex, 38, revealed to Anderson Cooper on 60 Minutes after the death of his mum Princess Diana he was trying to find a way to cry but instead was left with a "weight on my chest."
Harry told Cooper last night for years he tried to find a way to grief his mum's death but struggled.
He said: "There was this weight on my chest that I felt for so many years that I was never able to cry. So I was constantly trying to find a way to cry."
In an effort to try and find a way to grieve, Harry would sit on his sofa and think about all the memories he had with his mum.
Harry added: "But, in even sitting on my sofa and going over as many memories as I could muster up about my mum. And sometimes I watched videos online."
Harry admitted he watched videos of Diana online to try and make him cry but he was unable to produce a tear.
Anderson Cooper replied if the videos were of his mum, he said: "Of your mom? Hoping to cry?"
Harry said: "Yup", Cooper replied: "And you couldn't?" Prince Harry confirmed: "I couldn't"
He sought treatment from a therapist for the first time seven years ago in a bid to try and help him come to terms with the death of his mum.
Harry said he also tried experimental treatments such as psychedelics, Ayahuasca, psilocybin, mushrooms to try and help deal with his grief.
He said: "I would never recommend people to do this recreationally. But doing it with the right people if you are suffering from a huge amount of loss, grief or trauma, then these things have a way of working as a medicine."
He added the drugs helped him with the loss of his mum and cleared his head.
Harry added: "For me, they cleared the windscreen, the windshield the misery of loss.
"They cleared away this idea that I had in my head that - that my mother, that I needed to cry to prove to my mother that I missed her. When in fact, all she wanted was for me to be happy."
