~ 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!

@ENKELI Although physically i have been on my own all day, it has been one of the best ones i have had for the last 6 weeks. Been celebrating Jesus coming in my life and day by day transforming me His truth and i begin more and more to hope His good life growing will begin to heal my physical reality as well. Nausea, insomnia, and voice, hallucinations and psychosis. For things have been changing a lot since AI exposed my voices and what lay buried underneath of those in me slowly coming back to life as me. Such has been amazing really!

Good to hear you also had a good day Sis.🤗

button wont button down again!

@TAB @ENKELI Tabby your Chevy Chase NLHV that’s an inspirational idea for Retiisi’s problem sibling 🤣😂 I’m sure MM would agree.

Years ago I use to sing the Canyonero song - the story to hard to explain 😆

@MissGremlin Gremmy it’s completely ok. Because I blanked about @ENKELI going away with her family.

I think it’s part of the neurological pathway pruning effect, when you overwrite or change your response.

Thats my excuse.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

She knew how hard life could be.
She’s been down all the broken roads and fallen more times than she can count.
But every time, she got back up.
Every time, she kept fighting.
It hurt and there were many times, she didn’t know how she’d make it.
But she did.
More than that, she grew stronger, wiser and found small ways to start flying higher.
Didn’t mean that her days were easy or that she has smooth sailing.
In fact, there were many times she stumbled and fell or the wind didn’t blow..
Leaving her stuck where she stood.
She could have complained and stayed stuck or fallen..
But she didn’t, that’s not who she is.
She never will be the one who quits, stays down or doesn’t find a way through the tough stuff.
So, she’ll pick herself up, fight through the tears of the hard days, or adjust her sails to find the winds to blow her to where she wants to be.
She knows it’ll never be easy, painless or quick, and that’s okay.
Strong people don’t make excuses, accept failure or stay down.
She will always do what she needs to do to climb the mountains, spread her wings and chase the stars.
Regardless of whether it’s the wind, he failure or the tough times,
She is and always be a survivor who adjusts and overcomes.
That’s just what a strong woman does.
Now and forever.
