Due to various things going on I haven't touched my basses in about 2 months.
Plugged one in today...and I can't play. Not a thing. No rhythm, no nothing. And what's more, I don't want to play. I've no interest in bass or bands.
It's all completely gone.

I've had similar. Somewhere around '02 the band I was with at the time kinda drifted apart for a number of reasons, and after our last gig I didn't even pick up a bass for some 7-8 years. Just couldn't be arsed, which was possibly part of the reason for the band folding.
I noodled around at home a bit with an acoustic guitar and developed a dirty banjo habit, but had no urge for the bass at all. Just stacked all my gear under the stairs and left it there...
...until mid 2010, when some mates got in touch asking if I'd be up for a one-off gig for a laugh in a local pub.
So I did it, and had a whale of a time. The one-off scratch band is still together, getting more gigs than we can do, and I think I'm enjoying playing more than I've ever done.
As others have said, if you don't wanna play, don't. Life's short mate - do stuff you do want to do.
