~ 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!

Oh! @DownMoreThanUp

I'm so glad you decided to stay with us 💕

And I'm sorry you're feeling like missing that sign post.

Please be kind to yourself

Is there anything in particular that has made you feel like that right now?

Could we "talk through it"?

Looking forward to hearing about the caravan

Hopefully it's just right, if not, then it wasn't meant to be.

Your match will come soon.

At least you know what you are really looking for.

Be well dear friend 🧡 Taali

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Just some words for today, when you feel like you don't have a reason to stay.

You're amazing even on the days when you don’t feel it. You're beautiful inside and out even when you struggle to see it in yourself. You're loved more deeply than you may ever know and your presence in this world matters.

Please remember that you don’t have to be strong every day. It’s okay to feel lost, tired, overwhelmed or broken. You don’t have to have all the answers and you don’t have to face everything alone.

There is still so much in life waiting for you, more laughter, more memories, more smiles, more people to meet, more moments that will make you grateful you stayed.

You're someone’s favourite person. Someone’s safe place. Someone’s reason to smile. Your story is not finished yet.

So, please stay. Take it one day at a time. Be gentle with yourself. Let yourself be loved. Because this world is better, brighter and more beautiful simply because you're in it!

Sending lots of love and hugs to all ❤️.
