~ 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!

@Sadness2015 The holiday period is a difficult period of time for me. Lots of different dates from late December through to mid February where some years are not as good as others.

holiday/Christmas period is difficult time for lots of the sane community for different reasons.

My 10 sessions through Medicare ended awhile ago. I’m thankful I’ve got private health insurance so can get some rebate on fees for last few appointments plus first appointment with new psychologist next week. I feel 10 sessions is nowhere near adequate. Personally, I doubt this will ever increase though ☹️

@rav3n I liked that mental health calendar. It put things into perspective.

That video about the 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. It sounds very motivating and a good lesson to learn. I basically lost everything I ever cared about, six years ago. And it's because of these losses that I have learnt to put boundaries in place and I now know how to say " NO" to people. I am definitely a stronger version of myself and I have learnt so many lessons.
