~ 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 It’s good to have those relaxing days. We all need them and just potting about the house can bring grounding and some peace.

I am up and dressed which I’m proud of. I’m proud of myself for going through this cross taper and trying to find some medicine that can help bring me to a place where I’m not as sick as I’ve been. It’s not easy and I continue to try and do whatever I can to get through this. I’m grateful for these forums and to you for caring enough to remember to say hello and being so understanding. This community here is my support at the moment and I’m grateful there’s people like you who understand and don’t find me a burden.

@Cuddlebear yes it is. I just put a load of washing in so now I'm waiting for that to finish so I can hang it up.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@MissGremlin hope you get some rest im about to throw load of clothes on too now its mentioned.

just saw my relationship with psychologist go on hold due to wsldh wanting my file closed,.

Left me with brain in protection mode so feels numb and blurred concentration;

its a system closing my file

she will hold space for me in private practice once it starts hopefully by end of year

i am in guided recovery now to help me get through next 15 weeks at least and also the community i have found acceptance in on this thread and few others which are same people as here mostly

, @Cuddlebear for what its worth i remember you as being kind when i first landed on these forums and i think its not right how you have been treated and going through.

because i have not experienced tapering i wont pretend to know i have,

i dont comment not through a lack of interest or your suffering being a burden its from having no lived experience to wiegh in with.

hope your having good day!

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@REDLINEZ750 i hung out my washing once it finished, I'll have another load ready to go tomorrow. Ahhh it's never ending 😂.

Oh that's hard with the file being closed but I am glad to hear that you have the guided recovery program to get you through aswell as having the community support here.

I understand the brain in protection mode, just know that you aren't alone, we are here for you ❤️

@Glisten as a Christian I believe my something amazing will be Heaven. I do however ask God regularly why I can't have it a teeny tiny bit easier in the here and now while I wait for Him to take me home, country road...
