This repo is a TiddlyWiki that is my place to take notes about anything I find that I think helps my mental health.

How to View online

Please go to https://jacqslabz.github.io/therapy/ to view the notes and information in this tiddlywiki that is my personal therapy notebook. Though I recommend saving your own offline copy if you will be openning the site frequently (especially if you will be using a laptop/desktop).

Why Save your own Offline (Local) Copy

There are many reasons you probably want your own local offline copy of this therapy notebook:

• If you find yourself without wifi sometimes, then having your own copy means you can open it at those time when you don't have wifi.
• You have limited data for the device you use to open the site, or use a metered type of internet, and want to save your data or usage. Loading any page on this site can sometimes lag a bit because to look at any part of a TiddlyWiki, it first loads the entire TiddlyWiki. This will quickly waste you data, but having your own local copy will prevent this and save your data.
• Github has a bandwidth cap on the "github pages" feature that the link above is using. If that bandwidth cap is reached, I won't pay github for extra bandwidth (I'm sorry, I don't have much money) and will simply wait until enough time has passed for it to come back on its own. If you have a local copy, then github can't stop you from openning that.
• Github could realize this isn't what they intended their "github pages" to be used for, decide it's a terms of use violation, and take it down. And again: github can't stop you from openning a local copy.
• Something else unforseen could force the site to be offline / unavailable to you at a time you could truly need to refer to this information, and saving you own copy now before that happens would ensure you can refer to it.

How to Save Your Own Local Copy

To get your own copy of this site, you can download the whole repo or just the tiddlywiki file itself.

• Whole Repo: Click Code to open the dropdown then Download ZIP. Once it's downloaded, unzip it.
• Just the TiddlyWiki file: Click on "index.html" (not row it's in, the actual word/s "index.html") then click on the Download button. That will just open the code, use ctrl/cmd + S (or something like File > Save, or Menu > More tools > Save as file, or whatever your browser does) to bring up the save as dialog box, then choose a spot for the index.html file.

Either way, this will get you the "index.html" file on you computer. To view the site, drag n drop that file on to you browser or in your browser use ctrl/cmd + O to open the file (that's 'oh' the letter, not 0/zero the number; ctrl/cmd + 0 is probably like "reset zoom to 100%" or something like that, YMMV).

How to make your own edits to your copy

This requires some knowledge of how TiddlyWikis work, and works best with only one person making edits. https://tiddlywiki.com/#Saving has some info. I personally use https://ibnishak.github.io/Timimi/ most of the time (just be aware it has a part for your browser & a part for your actual OS, so there's 2 thingies to install).
