Art Block?

I seem to be only truly happy when I can make art. Drawing or painting (no matter how crappy it turns out) just makes me feel better. And in my art classes at school, i was happy because i was kept busy by working really hard and experimenting with new projects my teacher gave us, and because of working so much on these projects i didn't really have time or inspiration for my own.
Now I don't feel like I have anything to work on; no inspiration, no will, no nothing. And it sucks.
Its like phantom limb feeling in my nerves and my hands and it bugs me so much! (No i don't really know the phantom limb feeling but from septum piercing mishaps i have a pretty good idea) But even requests people ask me to do just aren't holding it for me. I don't know if its just an art block or what but its a pretty long ass one if you ask me.

And as most of you know I want to open my own tattoo shop and get a career going so I'm taking classes for business and such. That's gonna be GREAT. But not really. But because of this whole freaking art block I'm doubting my career choice and myself as an artist at all. And It's kinda too late to think of other things to do, because that's all I wanted to do since I was like, 4!! I even went to work with a tattoo local artist on career day ):<>

See how crazy art blocks make me? I'm freaking out over what's probably nothing. But it still really feels empty and crappy. Awesome.
