~ 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!

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@ENKELI I've always struggled with comprehension but it's gotten worse with more trauma as the years have gone on. If i read books now I tend to pick ones that are also movies, that way I can follow along better. But I get frustrated that I can read something over and over again and it just doesn't sink in, like I couldn't tell you anything of what I've read.

Can relate to staying up late when getting engrossed in things though 😂.

Thank you @MissGremlin

I'm going to relax and ponder for a while so will wish everyone a fine goodnight 😴.

Seeing my beautiful mental health care support nurse tomorrow so will probably have some pearls of wisdom to share.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@MissGremlin that makes sense that trauma would make things worse. While I love reading a gutsy big book I also enjoy light reading too, something that doesn't take much thought to read if that makes sense!

Alas my support button is on the Fritz, just because I said it was working now of course it isn't 😵
