u/time_outta_mind

I’ve been stable on medication since Fall of ‘23. I’ve had a few ups and downs but nothing like before medication. After 15 years or so of having undiagnosed bipolar and no meds, I welcomed the stability. I’ve been on this sub raving about meds and being sober.

But man, I’m so bored now. My life is pretty stressful (two young kids) and I get these surges of anxiety at night 2-3x/week. I just want to smoke a bowl of some non-anxiety/paranoia inducing weed, listen to some great music and have an uninterrupted night of sleep (impossible with the baby anyway.)

Will someone remind me why being stable on meds and sober is awesome?

Hey blues guitarists,

Electric bass player here. I’ve listened to some blues but I’ve never played it.

What tunes would you suggest a bass player to learn to get a handle on common forms/changes and to get a feel for the genre?

I know it’s a really deep genre with lots of subgenres but I’m hoping to dive in with 5-10 tunes to get my feet wet.

Thanks!
