Raman,I am also in recovery for 20+ years and a musician. I played some music (harmonica) during my using days with some garage bands, but it wasn't much. I continued playing harmonica for myself in recovery, and then, 6 years ago, keyboards, and more recently, singing. Music in recovery is wonderful! It is a great emotional release for me and a spiritally moving activity. I enjoy music probably as much as anything else I do in recovery short of making lover with my wife. I have a son (age 8) and I am teaching him the piano. That's cool. I have other hobbies in recovery too, such running, biking, and martial arts.
I am glad you are back into music. Maybe we can jam some time.
