~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Hey hi hello! Welcome to the second iteration of...

~ The Toolshed ~

I decided to make a new thread, as the first one had errors and phantom pages, and was getting quite long! You can still find all the amazing pics, inspiring quotes, and uplifting messages of the first Toolshed here.

What is the Toolshed? Ain't a place to hang your hammer! Hehe this is a space where we can share the things that have helped us in our recovery. Tools, coping skills, inspiring ideas, and messages of hope and growth, is what this space is all about!!

You can stay connected and up to date on this space by favouriting, or by subscribing to the thread - head to the top of the page, and find the three dots to the right of the thread title (next to the star), click, and from the drop down menu you can 'favourite' or 'subscribe' - and clicking the star itself will also favourite the thread for you.

Favourite threads are then always available in your favourites list which should appear on the right hand side of most forums pages - or you can go to your profile and scroll down to the 'Favourites' section under your recent posts.

If you subscribe, it means that you will get a notification every time someone posts something new in the thread. So up to you if you simply want it to be always accessible, or if you want all the updates, or both!

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! So without further ado, here's my latest batch!

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Thank you @MissGremlin loving these affirmations, definitely can relate to all of these. A lot of the times I’m still too hard on myself especially when things don’t go the way I expect them to be (and don’t meet my expectations) and when things don’t seem to work out well, especially in a short period of time. I don’t have a growth mindset at all so it’s easy for me to wanting to give up on things easily that I tried doing that dont seem to have turned out working.

Morning @Cuddlebear my sweet, I'm far from ok since stopping the medication. I'm safe though. I'm laying on my lounge resting with Casper.

How are you going?

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@MissGremlin Hello my friend. I’m sad you are feeling so unwell. It’s been so very hard for you for a while and that’s a really tough thing to live with. I am proud of you that everyday you find the strength to get through.

It’s good you are resting with Caspar by your side. I have Wilbur by my side. Like you I’m very far away from being ok. I’m finding it so hard which I know you can understand what I mean.
