~ The Toolshed ~

~ 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 ~

@Bunniekins would be nice to start feeling better. I'm so happy that you are finally better though. There's zero sunshine here today unfortunately, it's cold outside. Love a good storm. You got any plans for the day?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@MissGremlin idk if i am fit enough for it. i am so unfit Dreamy ...i am trying to talk my daughter into doing it with me. you know though having all these actors dying recently and they were in my age range makes one take stock and want to get my life together. have you got anything you want to achieve this year?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Bunniekins but that's why you join to actually become fitter 😊. It definitely hits when so many actors are dying and they aren't that old. I don't have anything i want to achieve, that's something I've always struggled with thinking about. I'm more of a just take each day as it comes person and I don't plan far ahead with things.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@MissGremlin nothing wrong with that Dreamy 😄 . taking every day as it comes is a good way to be i think anyway. i have a cardiologist appointment coming up soon and he always has a go at my weight so i would like to be down a couple of sizes. he even mentioned gastric bypass which is ridiculous. he is a strange one that is for sure.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Bunniekins I'd like to be down a couple of sizes but even cutting out soft drinks and junk food and I don't eat much chocolate or lollies i still can't lose weight. I eat home cooked meals only, no take away, lots of veggies and healthy stuff and it just doesn't make a difference. Hope your appointment goes well with your cardiologist. I'm gonna make myself a cuppa and something to eat now that my doctor has told me off 😂
