I've been suffering writer's block for the past 2 weeks and it's really bothering me. I've read a lot about it and I know it's very much some psychological thing mainly. There have been times where I was able to throw in like multiple tracks per month but now I can't even get a good damn thing out there. I just wanted to ask you guys what do YOU do in order to get through your writer's block.

Ummmmmm.....
1. I switch instruments
2. I listen to interesting music and music that makes me feel good (Sonic Youth)

As long as I know, writer's block is not that you don't make good songs. Writer's block is that, somehow, you don't like anything you compose

For example, I had that episode for more than a year. I didn't liked anything I did during those months. Anyway, I recorded it all. When the writer's block passed away, I found myself listening to the songs I had composed during my writer's block and really loved some of them

The problem is in you, not your music. It's a state of mind. The wrong state of mind

And, hey, prepare for the creative outbreak following the end of the block. I made a whole album in a bunch of weeks
