~ 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 @heartathome @Flutterbug9 Thanks lovely words of wisdom on a rainy day.🤗

@Jynx @StuF

A lie believed always crucifies a truthful reality.Sowing love and goodness into hearts cultivates ever growing kindness.When someone lies to you do not trust them with your true you.To seek comfort in a lie ends up hurting their truth more.
Trust always needs truthfulness to be enabled. Happiness never worries its own thoughts. Building our self image on love needs no mirror to esteem self.Mental stability will not balance without taking the Rest (in the list literally.)Taking responsibilty for what you let others take from you will have what they took returned in a moment.

@MissGremlin Hello friend. Thank you. How are you today? I love your affirmations.


It sure doesn’t feel like I’m keeping it together. I might start a post on forums as I’m in bad shape.

@AlwaysMyself I will get to your posts. I’m really struggling at the moment sorry for the delays.

hello to everyone passing by!

i was chatting to @Captain24 about recovery shapes, and we thought it would be nice to share this clip: Spiral Recovery

often times, we've heard recovery isn't linear and we've seen it in a squiggly line. i think this spiral shape is one i resonate with most so far. 😊

@MissGremlin wanted to "support" post hunny but of course isnt working for me on this thread either. love you hunny xxx

@DownMoreThanUp what if the person is so mentally unwell they could not handle the truth. what if you are only telling them the truth to make you feel better in yourself. i dont know about that one i think alot has to deal with the individual themselves what if their reality is real because they are so sick in their mind is it fair to blow their world apart and tell them the truth.

I am not having a go i really would like your opinion because that is what i am grappling with now with my middle son. thank you in advance. bunx
