of Tyre Nichols’ fatal confrontation with Memphis police continues to circulate online, many are feeling a range of emotions from anger and sadness to fear and frustration.
“I am a proponent for protecting your mental health and emotional health at all cost. And for me, that means not taking in the images from the video of Tyre Nichols being murdered, said Candyce Anderson Psychotherapist. “You can remain informed by reading an article which would give you an option as to whether or not you want to read what is going on the latest updates, versus actually clicking and watching the video that could cause some trauma.
“If you are feeling less trust in the system, if you are feeling like you are constantly in survival mode, trying to be safe, trying to remain vigilant to make sure that you’re okay, your family is okay. If you feel a sense of loss of control. These are some definite signs,” said Anderson.“My message to Black men to brothers would be it’s okay, for you to feel and to be validated and to be seen and to be heard,” Anderson added.
If the feelings get overwhelming, reach out to a therapist or doctor about the best ways to get you the help you need.
