Something you could do is write down different scene/themes and draw them, something like a 10 day challenge.
That's something   SenorMosquito is doing.

But what if that doesn't help q.q

Or maybe you could take a few art trades with people.
I know staying motivated is hard and everyone works differently, I just wanna help somehow. >~<

take a small break maybe a week or 2. in that time watch movies, go be outside, ect. just relax. its OK to take breaks art is and will be stressful at times. everyone needs a break every now and again. what i am reading from this post is that you might be having a burnout. ( sorry this is all jumbled I have a headache for the past few days that won't quit) hope this helps

Well, just my near constant want to get better at what I do keeps me going most of the time.
But when I do feel myself slipping, I go back to find what it was that inspired to even begin, like a recharge if you would!
I've also heard that setting a schedule concerning what you want to do, helps to make it easier to keep doing without burning yourself out.

But I also agree with  MamaCatG, taking breaks can do a world of good when needed!

I do hope that you can rekindle that fire inside of you lil bro, ans soon!

I have the same problem, I can't seem to wanna get my scetch book and draw because I feel like I'm just drawing the same thing over and over

Alright, well I hope I can provide some information. For someone keeping art as a hobby, do work as you see fit. There's nothing wrong with stepping away if you're not feeling in the mood or if it's not fun. There's a big difference between quitting and taking a break, and there's no pressure to do things a certain way or be like anyone else. If you don't feel like doing art then don't do it, simple as that. If you feel like getting the pencil out then do that. That's the ultimate luxury of doing art for fun. There is also the reality of being a professional artist. I don't know if you want to do art professionally, so this might not apply to you, but I want to include it anyway in the event it might serve some use.

On a professional level, the truth is that motivation is unreliable. That's not to say it's not useful, passion is incredibly helpful and good to have, but the reality is that not every moment is going to be full of love for the craft. In these times it's critical to keep good health, both mentally and physically. Exercise can help a lot in warding off the depression that might arise, along with keeping a healthy diet and getting sleep. There are plenty of exercises you can do at your desk to keep the body moving and in relatively good shape. Your health is your baseline for your work, and without it, there's no art. The second aspect is mental health.

In terms of mental health, there are a few things to keep in mind. Primarily, action breeds motivation. The best way to be motivated is to see yourself succeed, and the only way to prove that is by working in a way that shows progress. Think small and take your work one step at a time, focusing on small victories, and they will build up over time. The more you work and feel like you're getting somewhere, the more motivated you'll be to keep going, but it takes a push to work through it. These things take time though, and it's very important to remember that to avoid slipping. A healthy mindset goes a long way to help avoid becoming discouraged. There are generally three main killers: fear of failure, overthinking, and patterns. Fearing failure can stop an artist before they even start, being afraid what they make won't meet their expectations. The truth of the matter is that failure and making mistakes are at the core of learning, and it's important to make and recognize them. It is a sign of progress, and generally the first sign. For overthinking, this usually stems from a sense of perfection and needing everything to be right before beginning work. It also goes hand in hand with fear of failure but is slightly different as it entails waiting to start finalizing work rather than being afraid to. Last is patterns, in which an artist does the same thing over and over again. It can be good for working for a while, but eventually without any changes, learning, or new influences there will come a point of stagnation whereby the work becomes "the same old thing" in a sense. It's important to be open to a variety of different arts and influences, along with continually expanding your comfort zone and what you can draw, along with deepening knowledge of what you already draw. The last point for mental health beyond mentality is workflow.

Scheduling times to work is one of the best things you can do, and/or structuring your work time. In any kind of work, there is a very real risk of burnout, especially when combined with the methods above. Working too much is a very real threat, both physically and mentally, and should be avoided as much as possible. It's vital to know your limits and to stop before doing more harm than good. Taking breaks to eat, stretch, and relax is just as important as the work itself as they counter each other. There are plenty of methods out there on how to schedule your working hours, such as the Pomodoro technique which there should be apps available for if you don't want to fuss with a timer, and you can certainly find the way of working that works best for you.
Those are the basics of healthy work when it comes to the professional side, at least in my experience. If you want to do art casually I recommend taking what I've said with a grain of salt, as this is meant more for a professional approach, which is generally less forgiving considering studios. If you ever want to know more I can probably share some resources. As for now, I wish you the best of luck working casually or professionally and hope whatever you do brings you joy.
