~ 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 ~

@MissGremlin I do seem to be able to keep dragging myself back up. And the only reason I do that, is because of my daughter. If I didn't have her, I know for a fact that I wouldn't be here.

It took me 50 years to realise that I deserve better. I have now put boundaries in place and I am not as much of a people pleaser as I used to be.

Hey @Bunniekins, just so you know that we are aware of the suppport button not working in some cases for Members and we are working on it. Sometimes when you refresh your screen it works then so maybe give that a go. Thanks RiverSeal ❤️

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@tyme Thank you. Today hasn't been a bad one. I just happened to be reading a book where somebody died and they were describing the gut wrenching pain of the loss. And since it is the 23rd anniversary of the events that led to my partner's death, I was feeling that pain all over again.

I am reading a different book now, trying to keep my mind busy on something else. Otherwise I will start going over the events that started on grand final day.

And posting on here has been helping as well 😊

@Mustang67 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE 🧡 the Boundaries❣️

Can never get reminded enough of Boundaries and how to use them.
