~ 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!

@AlwaysMyself I don't know if my area has a psychiatrist medication advise line. I will have to look into it. Thanks for the heads up 😊

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

The relief was palatable @ENKELI Ms Ern it.

Quite rightly you are a hardworking person.

How did your day finish @ENKELI @AlwaysMyself?

What is happening tomorrow?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

My day went smoothly, thank you @Glisten 😊. Had a number of back to back appointments, and none of them ran late. 😊 (I hate being late for appointments, so whilst I leave a gap with some flex room between them, if someone is running 30min late it can still cause me a lot of discomfort about then being late for the next appointment).

Tomorrow need to do some house tidy up before people come over.

What's tomorrow for you?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@AlwaysMyself that is some sweet executive function that you have going on to organise all of that 🙌🏼 ⭐️

My executive function left 🧳, didn’t give me a return date 📆

I admire order. A place for everything and everything in its place.

Tomorrow 90% chance of rain 🌧️ I hope it buckets🪣 down all day.

Think I’ll spend the morning in the sauna.

@ENKELI I’m going to go to Leed to sweat.

@REDLINEZ750 there's a whole Finnish community in one of the suburbs south of Perth. My Finnish friend took me to the local Spud Shed and Coles and would all of a sudden start speaking Finnish and then tell me He/She is Finnish and I'd laugh and say yeah I figured that!

My Finnish is very rusty after not speaking it since the 90s myself, but I do remember some important words, like

Kippis- cheers

Tomaatii- tomato

Enkeli - angel

Sauna!

Lisää olutta - more beer 😁

Mina rakistan sinua - I love you.

They work hard and drink harder!
