~ 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 - I understand the triggers so well now.... thankfully I know when to step back.

So this is a question for everyone - do you find that you have more triggers over the holiday period?

Not only are my triggers right now insane again - I feel like I am living in my head 24/7 and questioning every person or situation that is currently happening - way more than usual - too the point that I don't want to connect with anyone at all.

New Year can't roll around fast enough that I can see my psychologist again - as I can't cover anymore private sessions with all the additional medical expenses for the two surgeries in the past few weeks. Am I the only person feeling that 10 sessions covered by medicare is not enough in one annual year?

i love that quote on the decemeber calendar!! @Mustang67 speaking of plants, i came across a video yesterday of this person cutting the leaves off her plant and then she returns a few months later with the same plant, looking even healthier/better - basically talking about how it's never too late to start again, and that although it can be scary starting from scratch, you can come back even stronger 🌻
