Are we being given imaginary treatment for a real disorder? Ground. What does that even mean? So know how to do it. It doesn't keep me from stepping into a noose to.find the sweet spot. Get grounded. Can I stay grounded in my sleep? Can I build a shield around me to keep me from dissociating in the night and waking up a suicide? This is so ****ed up.

there isn't any foolproof evidence ANY MH treatment work and how.
It either works for you,or it does not. I mean for me shielding works amazingly for anxiety and paranoia. It's one way of relaxing your mind and body. I think the purpose of grounding is to stay in the moment and not to let your mind spin and overestimate the actual dangers.
Not sure if there is "medical" evidence, but meditaiton works... but it takes time to master it. You shouldn't expect it work from the first attempt. Practice when you are in a calm situation first. It may not work 100% but any lessening of troubledness it great, right?
