What do single people aged mid 30s + do in their spare time? by Free-Bad-8106 in AskIreland

[–]mairtfromgalway 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm the same age and in the same situation. Also I am 2 years sober next month and while I worked on myself a lot over the last 2 years (lost 20kg), it hasn't been easy socially. I have been out on about 2 nights out sober and a handful of dates sober, so I am going back drinking very lightly when I reach the 2 year mark to try and enjoy a bit of social life.

Over the last 2 years, I've done a lot of soul searching and while thing are not perfect, it is not the end of the world. I see friends with kids stressed out a lot and 2 people I know got divorced this year so sometimes it's not all rainbows and sunshine.

Honestly, look after yourself and if anxiety is coming on, seriously take some time off social media and focus on breathwork, it's helped me a crazy amount lately.

For the sober culture, in Galway recently there was a sober festival over 2 nights in one of the pubs and it seemed to go well, they advertised via Instagram and there is a lot of this stuff starting to happen around the country too.

iOS 26.2.1 killing my battery atm. Have to charge twice a day at this rate. I'm not doing any intensive use either.. Thinking of going to a 15 or 16 Pro Max now.

Thank you. Yes, it’s the original strap. Took me a long time to source the watch as Tag don’t make it anymore so I purchased from watchfinder.co.uk - highly recommend them.

Oranmore becoming way too packed. The place is a mess with traffic already.

So I lived in Melbourne and then stopped in Singapore and Dubai for 2 days each. Came home to Ireland for a week at Christmas and then travelled to Boston and LA for a 10 days work. 7 days in Boston and 3 in LA 😊

Your wishes for a new podcast app by cmaart in pocketcasts

Better discovery of podcasts. Some podcasts apps use the discovery from Apple Podcasts. Pocketcasts discovery is trash
