Another thing that can happen, OP, is that once you no longer have to Do Something to distract yourself, once you no longer have that particular horrible but strikingly effective motivator^*, it can take a long time to find new motivations for things.

It may also be that your art changes. I was a visual artist and sculptor (examples) before; now I'm a musician (examples, including a boatload of videos from my last tour) and I'm doing it for totally different reasons. And I'm a lot happier with my art. A lot happier.

But that took a couple of years or being idle, honestly. Creatively idle, I mean. I just had nothin'. It wasn't happening. And it took a couple of years to shake itself and sort itself out.

^*: Whatever it might be; for me, this wasn't actually depression, but I'll keep details to myself for personal reasons.
