I can relate to being bored without drinking since I'm pretty new to a sober life. I use to sing all the time when drunk and stopped when sober. I had a band for a bit too(years ago). I'd drink when performing because it masked my fear to be infront of large groups. Again I can relate to thinking my talent is gone, but it's not. For me after 97 days sober it's been the best choice of my life. Just take it one day at a time, one minute if 24 hours is too much. If you havent gotten a sponsor get one and start working the steps. That takes up some time plus it makes you think. Also go to meetings (if you don't already attend). I have two coffee commitments for two of my meetings. Try to get involved in the groups. It will certainly keep you busy and you'll make some great friends who can help...Remember a fear erased is a fear faced. Best wishes!
