CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Election day is over, but our feelings on the outcome might stick with us for some time. One Charlotte therapist believes that can be dangerous. WCCB Charlotte’s Zane Cina learned how Charlotte is holding up emotionally after the re-election of President Donald Trump. Rory Kane is a licensed clinical social worker. She provides therapy at Kaleidoscope Counseling in First Ward. Kane is used to giving mental help, but says lately her clients have asked for political relief. “People are going to have higher periods of stress right now, more anxiety,” Kane said “I expect here in the next few days, I’ll also be having more of an influx in clients.” Kane calls it election stress and says she seen it on both sides of the political aisle. She’s heard positive feelings from some clients. Others have expressed fear and anxiety in their therapy sessions over the 47th President. Kane has seen Kamala Harris supporters try to rationalize why their candidate lost. She says that can be a dangerous mental game. “Sometimes we compartmentalize by focusing on something else, turning our attention to what went wrong,” Kane said. “If I go down these rabbit holes, I’m taking time away from my time in processing and working through these emotions. I’m never understanding why I feel this way.” Donald Trump supporters are ecstatic for a second term. Kane warns to not let the celebration go too far. “It is nice to be able to show pride in, you know, your vote and what you want for the community and your country itself. We also have to understand there are people who are afraid of what is to come in the community, but we all live side by side,” Kane said. Dozens of Charlotteans said they’re happy the election is over with. They’re tired of seeing constant campaign ads and are ready for the discourse from all sides to end. “There are harmful effects from being online too much, being on social media, seeing the news, continuing to consume what you know is going to trigger you or or provoke that heightened emotion. So I would say reduce it. Definitely reduce your intake of politics,” Kane suggested to Americans who feel exhausted by politics. She added it is important to stay informed, and recommends voters take breaks from consuming political content. Kane said the next four years will bring policies with big impacts. Her advice is to set boundaries with friends and family when it comes to talking politics.
