~ 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!

Hello @heartathome, pictures take a while sometimes as the amazing moderators that work being the scenes have to approve them ☺️.

I don't have any plans today, a bit of a rest day for me as the past couple of days have been warm and it's taken alot out of me.

What about you sweet?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

I'll remember that for next time @MissGremlin . I love seeing them come up of a morning. It's a great way to start my day! 💛Rest and recovery are necessary at times! I hope you have a peaceful day! Where abouts are you for it to be that hot? I hope you've got an aircon for summer. I had ceiling fans put in last summer. I prefer the heat but when it hit's 36 - 38 degrees, I start thinking of moving to Tasmania! 😄 I'm going to my mental health hub for the last time. It's closing for good today. No more funding. 😢

@heartathome love being able to share them for the community ☺️. I'm in Adelaide and it's starting to get warmer, Saturday and Sunday is around 30⁰, it's a bit of a shock to the system 😂. I have aircon but it's evaporative so as soon as the humidity is high it's just not effective but I survive, the thought of living in Antarctica really does appeal to me during summer though 😂. That's so sad but I hope you enjoy it. It's a shame so many places and programs shut down cos of funding 😞

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

Hey there guys 🙂 I've just been catching up on this thread and had to make a few edits to some posts form last night where the community was chatting about psychedelic and alternative therapies, and I thought this would be a good opportunity to have a transparent chat about how this can fit with our guidelines and where it sits - because up until now it's been living in the grey a bit.

Firstly - It's great to see these sort of chats happening and know that they're always coming from a place of curiosity and support, however, like I mentioned there's been a bit of a grey area when it comes to getting more specific about these sort of therapies, where we start to name certain drugs or medications.

I know that in the past we may have allowed some drug names on the forums, however we're really working on improving our consistency in the way that we moderate so we can better serve our amazing forums community, and in this case, that means applying the guideline around medication names more uniformly.

So you can still definitely have these convos here, but we can't get any more specific than "psychedelics". Just like how you can say painkillers, but not a specific pain relief medication, the same applies to less mainstream medications and drugs.

If you're ever unsure you can always ask us moderators on the forums, or via email! I know this may feel like a change which is why I wanted to post this here. And if you wanted to discuss any edits made to posts, please don't hesitate to email us at team@saneforums.org

@REDLINEZ750 @Mustang67 @DownMoreThanUp @PeppyPatti and anyone else how is interested in this topic
