~ 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 ~

@Cuddlebear I have found that the Mental Health support is sadly lacking unless you are under 25 or a male FIFO worker. I once spoke to the Minister for Mental Health in WA about it and got absolutely nothing back.

Instead of the government spending $65 million on a new NRL team in WA they should be putting it toward mental health and dental.

You are doing so well despite not having the support you need. How are you doing this week?

It's still warm here, I have a GP appointment on Monday and it's going to be 36. The air con in my car is not working so I am miffed about that, trying to save up to get it fixed.

Thinking of you, hugs xx

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@DownMoreThanUp thanks for your memes, they are very useful.

The one about not healing from what hurt you is very appropriate for me.

Hope your day is going well my friend. Blessings 🙏

@Jynx how do you make what you are replying to, show in your reply? Is it just a matter of copying the link and pasting it in your reply?

Clearly I missed this last week haha @Mustang67 - it's the 'quote' function, at the top of the text box when you're writing your post should be quotation marks -

Hitting it should automatically insert the full quote of the post you're replying to. I am sorry, not sure if the function is the same on mobile - but the three dots at the right hand side also expands the toolbar so if you see those on mobile it might be hidden behind there!
