~ 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!

Sounds like some type of computer glitch.

yesterday I was able to tag Blackcloud. Today I can’t.

yesterday Blackcloud mentioned they had not been able to login for awhile due to the new login procedure.
no idea with the others though

I wish I was more tech savvy and could fix it for all of you.

I hope you're well btw 💮

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Thanks @Nala2022 trying to take one day at a time. Couple weeks ago I found out, in addition to arthritis in right shoulder, I have small tear in rotator cuff tendon. Apart from gentle movement with the shoulder, I don’t know what I can and can’t do which is getting me down.

initial psychiatrist appointment on Monday morning. Tuesday back to hospital for the day for pain relief procedure in theatre

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

That sounds like a lot to be dealing with all at once @Flutterbug9

I can understand why not knowing what you can and can't do with your shoulder would be getting you down. Hopefully you'll get some more clarity around that soon.

It sounds like you've got a big couple of days ahead with the psychiatrist appointment and then your hospital procedure on Tuesday.

One day at a time sounds like a good approach right now

I'll be thinking of you and hoping both appointments go as smoothly as possible 🤗

Hi @Flutterbug9

Wishing you well

Just letting you know that I have to login each time I try to reply to a post

Anyway I just thought I'd let you know

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
