Sorry I didn't see your post sooner.

I have never been in this kind of mood. To me music is life. I hear music when I drive my car, people talking in the street make music too. If I don't have a guitar somewhere, I play the piano or I use my lap as a drum set...

I suggest you try and play an acoustic. If you have some money, buy yourself a real good one. Feeling your guts vibrating with the wood is quite a feeling...
Bring some friends home, sing with them. Good tunes, immortal ones. The beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, etc...

The guitar is only a tool.

Music, and mostly, the creation behind all of this, is the real goal.

Try reading 'zen guitar' by Philip toshio SUDO. It can give you some insight on your feelings and maybe you'll get another start.
