I have no idea what you're going through. Although I did notice this phenomenon before. My wife has lost all interest in photography somehow. (Which is a shame, because with my LBA, she would only need a body.)
I, on the other hand, have a extremely strong desire to improve myself constantly. Whenever I see brilliant images, produced by very skilled photografers, then I want to be able to do the same. Needless to say, I'm not there yet. And I doubt I'll quit trying to improve myself if I ever were to get there.
What inspires me a lot is, for example, the exclusive gallery on this forum. The images there are beautiful. And trying to reproduce such images myself is fun and is teaching me a LOT.
