~ 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!

@Flutterbug9 I hope the GP can clear up the confusion for the service about it being for Psychiatry not psychology -- I reckon you could be right about that being the cause if he accidently wrote 'psychology' and their response was that they didn't provide that service.

I'm trying to book in with a new GP, and their website says to contact the office prior to booking if a new patient. I sent en email 4 days ago and still no answer -- they don't list a phone number either. 😕. If I don't hear back by next week, I think I'll plan to go physically to the location and just wait there until between their appointments (even though their standard appt length is 40min because they're a specialist MH GP). I hate relying on email, because its quite easy for them to not be received, or accidentally go to spam, or be accidentally deleted... the only thing worse is fax! 😅

@Bunniekins good pics :). I can definitely attest to the last one about being unhappy alone is better than being unhappy and with/married to someone 😅.

Thankyou @MissGremlin

I love reading your posters

I feel understood when reading them.

@Jynx @TAB @Bunniekins @REDLINEZ750 @REDLINEZ750 @AlwaysMyself &

just to let you know the Government just gifted Olympic players heaps of money. I have no idea why they didn’t come over and gift me a cleaner and “professional curator of moving furniture around to make home look better” person for 5 - 6 hours per week. Maybe they forgot. They’re calling tomorrow.
