I think you suffer from something more than just writer’s block. The human spirit seems to oscillate between highs and lows like the ebb and flow of the tide. A while back I read an article on Lifehacker that recommended we work with our low points rather than fight them. The logic being the low will pass with time and chances are it will be followed by a high. I regret that I am unable to find the article, nor can I recall much more than that abstract summary.

I pamper myself when I hit a low point. It makes the low more tolerable but I don’t think it moves me through it any faster. I either become rested enough to take the reigns of my responsibilities again or I over indulge until my shame motivates me to blast back into high gear. Video games, fast food, television–I over indulge in simple pleasures. I find rest and inspiration from taking personal days, visiting old friends and being spontaneous. That last one has the largest pay off, but is the most difficult to pull off.

Seriously though. Hit it from a scientific angle. Lock yourself away in a room and write down a list of questions that you would run past someone with writers block. Be honest with yourself and answer the questions to the best of your ability. destroy the paper when you are done. After a few hours, you should have a reasonable idea of the next step that you should be taking.
