Used to Play Live a lot when I was in the UK, pubs, clubs some studio work for hire.

Played out a bit in California lots of RnB and Motown stuff.

Been trapped in my regular job and haven't played much in the last 5 years.

Ah, time is so often the issue / barrier to the stuff you want to do
Music is my therapy - I'd say just get out there & see if you can join in a jam somewhere
You, won't look back, honestly. I didn't play for nearly 25 years! And I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed playing bass
I wouldn't be without it now

As @Marc S says above "Music is my therapy.." 

I think that you may find that you are not alone in this belief.

@loopchemist, welcome to our humble abode...
