When I was younger I used to draw all day everyday. It was all I wanted to do and all that made me happy. But recently I've lost my passion for art. I never feel like drawing and I literally have to sit down and fucking force myself to do it. And when I do I get frustrated/bored after like an hour or so. I haven't made a complete work since God knows when. Should I just give up on art?

Not only should you give up art but you should also give up your boy pusspuss, catch aids, and die for shitting up my board.

Well there's your problem, you burned yourself out you nigger.
I recommend spending some time looking up master studies and master works of all kinds, exposing myself to new art always motivates me to keep working.

Any recommendations for master works to check out?

Watching kjg sketch always puts me in the mood to draw. This can probably be applied to most artists that show their process. Makes you want to make art. Try spending some time just watching artists do their stuff, not necessarily to study, just to relax and get in the mood.

A few years ago I was dating a guy that was controlling, manipulative, and sexually abusive. I came from an abusive home and had a lot of issues with myself and how I view myself so I was convinced he was the best i could get and was happy he didn't hit me. He discouraged me from drawing unless it was something he wanted me to draw (Usually furry porn. I liked drawing vanilla furries, yknow just cute animal people like what you see in cartoons but he made it gross and made me feel gross. I spiraled into depression, felt discouraged from pursuing my dreams and was put down every day by him and his family until I finally took a job opportunity away from him and moved closer to the job and just sort of cowardly ignored him after saying we were done (After he threatened suicide on me).
After this I couldn't draw for the next five years. It was painful, it didn't feel the same, it didn't bring me joy it just made me think of how i was a failure, how i had difficulty improving, and that lack of energy made me too depressed to try for the longest time.
..Until I got over it. One day I healed, I met someone who inspired me again and gave me the inspiration to pursue my dreams again because he was so passionate about his.
So my advice to you, anon, is surround yourself with people who are chasing their dreams. Listen to their struggles and their successes and let it drive you to not give up because giving up is the only way you ever truly fail at something.

this, I got my my job of drawing outside of school, but the school took it away, it's now after a few years of finishing school that I can't start drawing again
but my case was opposite, everybody in school was sucking my dick figuratively for how good I was at drawing, a bunch of normies, while I was not enjoying my plateau
after I finished school, I had more freedom in choosing who I am spending my time with. And now that I don't have to deal with cocksucking and that I have the internet, I started improving again, which is what I find joy in.

my lack of sleep is showing

You just lost the habit of drawing and switched it to others along the years. That's not about passion, that's about what you're habitued yourself to do in your spare time.
