~ The Toolshed ~

So I've decided to create a new space, similar to The Ice-Memery but instead of being silly memes, these are memes/images/words etc. that I've found that are more like tools and insights for recovery. Hence, I welcome you to:

~ The Toolshed! ~

🔧💡🔩🤔

These are things I've found that are insightful, provide psychoeducation, or that have helped inspire me in my recovery journey. I invite anyone who wishes to contribute to do so! It doesn't have to be pictures, it can be discussion, questions, videos, whatever you like! But to start us off, I would love to share a nice lil stack of memes/pics I've found that I thought were really worth the read.

P.S. If you haven't already, you can also check out our Coping Toolbox for ideas and strategies to help you when you need to cope with the hard stuff!

So without further ado, lemme kick us off!

Will just tag a few forumites to start, pls do tag anyone you feel would enjoy or wanna contribute to this thread!

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

Hello @Cuddlebear, I'm having a hard time at the moment after just chatting to my counsellor. Have a doctors appointment at 12.30 today aswell.

How are you going?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@MissGremlin Big hugs for you from me. It can feel unsettling after counselling and I’m sorry you are not feeling well. It shows strength to reach out to counselling. Is the counsellor good?

Im feeling much the same way. I see a new counsellor today and I’m very anxious about it. Not sure if they can provide support. I can’t afford the gap on mental health plan for the psychologist so local health service said they’re not taking new clients but booked me in for 1 appointment.

Im thinking of starting a thread to get some advise from the people on the forums. I’m terrified to do it in case I say the wrong thing. Might try later today. Not sure.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

Thankyou @Cuddlebear ❤️. It's been a massive step for me because of past experiences but she seems to be ok. I've only spoken to her twice now.

Oh I really hope they can help, sending hugs to you aswell. I know it's such a big step talking to a new counsellor so I really hope it goes well for you.

Starting a new thread sounds like a good idea and the moderators/peer support workers are always around to help if you need support with it. It's hard to know what to say sometimes and the fear of saying the wrong thing but they will always help if things need to be fixed up or removed etc.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Bunniekins my sweet Bun Bun I'm glad to hear you're feeling a little better. How's the weather out your way? It's 19.5 and rainy here. I am getting frustrated because I want to water my plants and it's raining again. I'm grateful for the rain to water said plants but I miss the quiet time I spend watering and tending to the plants.

@MissGremlin how is your day going? I hope Tuesday is being kind to you 🫂💐
