I can’t really explain it, but last week I felt like I could draw anything from ponies, Kirin’s and changelings to discord and Tirek (heck I have drawn them all). But now I can’t even draw a simple pony face properly. It’s frustrating, I have lots of ideas but I can’t draw them because they don’t look right. Makes me feel like I will never be able to draw properly anymore.  
Anyone else get that or is it just me?
 
EDIT: Seems like it is just me then. My main issue is drawing the pony snouts, I just cant seem to get them right.

Try drawing everything else. Go to someplace where you can sit, like in a park, and just do gesture sketches or draw squirrels and trees. Just keep your arm moving, sometimes that’s enough to refresh your mojo.

Thats kinda what I have been doing today. I have a nice and comfortable spot I like to draw in, peaceful, even more so when nobody is around. I even found some useful guides to help refresh my style. Snouts were giving me trouble.  
I sketched this up and am even using last months ATG to get me going with practice (so far done day 1 and 2).

Oh! That’s nice :)
 
Yeah, sometimes just remembering why drawing is fun can really help. For me, if I feel like I have to or should draw something it reminds me of doing it as a job, and I don’t want to ever go there again.
 
So, grab a beer (or whichever refreshing beverage you prefer) and have fun :)
 
Because if you aren’t having fun, then it just isn’t any fun.

I agree, I was in a bit if a rut because of what had happened with the site, and when you’re worried you cant think straight or concentrate.
 
I mainly go for something I’d find humorous or something I would wan to see, Id normally draw and not think about what others say, if I like it, thats all that matters.
 
I noticed that if I do it for popularity (and it can get to my head even when a picture of mine reaches 100 faves) its not fun, I’m thinking about what others would want to see. I try my best to not let that happen.  
Its worse when I’m tired… a lot of failed inking.
 
But a nice cuppa coffee or tea, peaceful room to myself and Im good to go. :)

I find it’s good to draw what you like.
 
Like you said, a hot cup of coffee or tea, some nice music, and draw a butt. Mmmm … butts.
