writing blahs

dbskylerI've been in a horrible non-writing space lately where I really feel that I want to write, but every time I sit down to try to do it, I either can't write at all or I write something that I end up hating.
I tried going to the DW random prompts generator and clicked until I got a prompt that looks interesting, but nothing is coming. And meanwhile I have this WIP that is sitting on my shoulder making me feel really guilty because I've been making zero progress on it.
Fic_rush is happening again this weekend and I'm planning on participating, but last time it was only marginally helpful -- I did end up writing some stuff that I liked at the time, but now I don't like it anymore.
I would just think that I need to take a break from writing except that doesn't seem to be it -- it's more that I feel that I want to write, perhaps even need to write, but just can't. Argghhh! Has anyone else gone through something like this? Any thoughts / ideas / suggestions gratefully accepted. . .
