~ 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!

@MissGremlin I know you are having a brutally hard time. That surviving each minute feels like climbing the highest mountain. While I may only be on the internet I care about you. I know you have the strength to survive what you are going through and I’m gonna be walking by your side each step of the way.

Please don’t give up. You are so loved here and reach out for anything even to talk silly stuff or any of your favourite things. I know it’s not as good as F2F but I’m a real human who cares about you.

Everyday won’t be like today. It will take us time to recover but we are both gonna make it. We are survivors. We’re both gonna ever give up.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Blackcloud i have to remind myself of it too ☺️.

Signing up for dance classes sounds like great fun and I'm sure there would be the option of having a support worker with you. I hear you with the anxiety about being in a class with other people but remember you're not alone in feeling that way and hopefully with time you'll be comfortable with others and maybe even make friends along the way ☺️.

Thankyou sweet, sometimes it's all we can do is just take things one little step at a time. But progress is progress no matter how small ❤️.

I hear you sweet, it's good that you've been thinking about it alot and it shows that you give things a great deal of thought rather than just rushing into things and potentially making a wrong choice. I guess there's alot of things to consider, such as what you want to pursue as a career, if you have another option if that wasn't something you no longer wanted to pursue etc.

@Cuddlebear this was so beautiful to read, thankyou so much sweet ❤️.

I care so much about you and I know how much you've been struggling aswell. But you are so right, we are survivors and we will make it no matter how tough things may feel at times.

Love and hugs my beautiful friend ❤️

@MissGremlin

I've actually been thinking of changing my name, and that appeals as an alternative!
