~ 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!

Thank you @PeppyPatti ☺️❤️ and yeah uni is hard work (feels like a lot of hard work), but studying a major I’m interested in is what’s most important of all ☺️

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Chasingsunsetsso I did wanna mention something that sorta happened last evening that lead me to say what I mentioned in my initial post on this thread in the first place.

i attended a zoom hangout session that was specifically for ND people (myself included) but this session is under a different organisation (not the one I’m doing my placements at). I wrote something about the things I’ve been thinking about & scared of on the chat function & I included emojis in my message to represent on how I feel about the situation i was thinking, right? So the host person read my message, then when it got to the emojis part that I included in that message, she made some faces to replicate the faces of the emojis which I thought was very unnecessary and the rest of the group were having a bit of a laugh about those ‘emoji’ faces she made and then they were all talking about emojis for a whole ass minute… also, none of them had anything to say about what I wrote except for one person but she only asked me like two questions and that was it. It was my first time joining that session & the host seems like a nice person (I’ve seen her twice). Perhaps because it’s a social hangout session and not a peer support session but yea I don’t see why they weren’t willing to do what I was expecting from them. That explains my original post when I mentioned about that it’s sad we live in a world where the entire population in this world aren’t willing to go out their way to help those out that are struggling and really need a shoulder to cry on.

Hey @Blackcloud, how’s your evening? Thanks for sharing what was happening for you yesterday. Sorry you didn’t feel heard when you typed in some emojis to represent how you feel. Sometimes I have done that and find it very helpful but I hear you felt you weren’t understood 😞 we are all here to sit with you and supply an e- shoulder if you need one 💛
