Ground Me: Dissociation Aid

Ground Me is the first-ever app specifically designed to support people struggling with mild to moderate dissociation, an often misunderstood and under-recognized symptom affecting focus, memory, presence, and emotional regulation. Whether you're zoning out, feeling as if the world around you isn’t real or detached, or battling maladaptive daydreaming, Ground Me helps you stay present, track patterns, and manage symptoms in real-time. For those managing anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), or stress, Ground Me offers accessible, science-based tools for support in the moment and over time. Unlike general wellness apps, it’s purpose-built for dissociation and incorporates the expert-approved DSS-B self-assessment tool. WHAT MAKES GROUND ME UNIQUE? • Tailored For Dissociation: Specifically addresses depersonalization, derealization, zoning out, maladaptive daydreaming, and related experiences. • Scientifically Validated: Uses the DSS-B (Dissociative Symptoms Scale – Brief), for ages 18 and older, to track dissociation levels with clinical accuracy. • Real-Time Tracking & Support: Take the DSS-B test, track symptoms over time, and access instant grounding exercises tailored to your state. • Immediate Support (Ground Me Now): Get instant help during intense disconnection with multi-sensory grounding tools designed to bring you back to the present. • Grounding Toolbox: Access a library of cognitive, sensory, and breathing techniques curated to help you return to the present. • Blog Posts: Read expert-written articles that explore dissociation and offer practical coping strategies for everyday life. WHO IS GROUND ME FOR? • Individuals experiencing dissociation, zoning out related to PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, or trauma. • University students and working professionals who are facing stress, focus issues, or burnout. • Therapists and mental health professionals seeking between-session support tools. • Organizations and universities looking to integrate scalable mental health support.
