An alter a day keeps your memory away

[dissociationdays]

Important!

If someone is dissociating please do not shout or get angry with them, it is not in their control and behaving aggressively will distress them more.

If they are forgetting where or who they are, time, date then gently reminding them is okay, getting frustrated or insisting you are right can confuse and distress them further.

If they become agitated or angry, though it may be a normal reaction to get angry too, this can be very detrimental and make the episode worse, even leading to self harming behaviours, it is very important to stay calm and use safeguarding procedures. Note that they will most likely not remember how they have behaved.

If they become detached with reality, and feel they are not part of the world, or go into a dreamlike state, again be calm, and encourage them to use grounding techniques, be patient and don’t try to do anything unexpected to “snap” them into reality, this will most likely result in some sort of panic attack.

I will post more information on how to help a loved one with dissociation but in the meantime send us a message if you would like more information or have any questions.

Just remember - patience, staying calm and reassurance is key!

Love to anyone struggling with these issues, there are ways to cope, we are here to help ❤️

cavetown - Hug all ur friends (uke chords)

Lots of ppl have been asking for the finger placements to hug all ur friends so here’s the chords in order!!! Listen to the track to figure out changeovers :-))

Intro:

For the chord after C basically just move ur finger on the A string up to the 6th fret. Just before the G6 move ur finger up to the 7th fret then back down to 6th (if u listen to the track u will be able to hear what this should sound like). Also just before the Am chord move ur finger on the A string up to the 5th fret.

For the verses and choruses the chords are just the same as above, except without the things i just described in the paragraph above.

I’m sorry i’m so bad at explaining my chord progressions!! Once u get it it’s really simple it’s just the same pattern throughout. Also at the very end on the three notes on “go-oh-oh” i pluck the A E and C strings one after the other to the same rhythm as i’m singing.

Hope this helps!! :-)
