~ 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 🙌🏼 you are always keeping it real for those of us who struggle for the most basic things 💖

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Glisten sometimes it's just about bringing it back to the basics especially when life gets tough.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@MissGremlin reprogramming my nervous system is an ongoing process.

My nervous system doesn’t understand logic and is unreasonable and irrational.

I have no alternative but to persist with retraining it.

Exhausting and tedious.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Glisten i hear you sweetheart and i can relate so much.

It's definitely an ongoing process and it requires constant maintenance which is completely exhausting.

Gentle hugs beautiful, you've got this ❤️.

You and me @Mustang67

I don’t mind getting photographs but don’t show them !!

my friend I met him at Sor Charles Gardiner hospital he works there I found myself apologising ( again) whilst he gave me the run down about he disapproved when I met my present husband and how he teaches his daughters not to go from one relationship straight to another.
yawn.
for some reason. A teaching reason to give me more pearls of wisdom he took a photo of me to teach me something. I sat here thinking ‘ not long to go. What’s wrong with me listening to all this garbage and did I look ugly ….,,

What is a vision board?

In response to: Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@PeppyPatti see yourself through peanuts eyes and you will never need to put the words "did I look ugly" together again

In response to: Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Sophia1 a Vision Board is like Pinterest 🙌🏼 Ad free and doesn’t try to sell you anything.
