    It happens to most people at some point/time(s) in their career so you're not alone.

    When it happens to me, I simply don't do anything work related at home. I can get burned out due to self-learning the same stuff I do at work all day but at night as well. I take however long it takes for the feeling to go away. Sometimes it's a day, sometimes several days. Watch some movies, catch up on some tv shows, xbox, etc.

    I used to, now I just don't look at a computer except when I am at work. If you are the type to leave work, go home, sit on facebook chat, read blogs, start lab work for a cert etc it will get old quick.

    Yep I get burned out all the time.

    Pumping the breaks like you mentioned and doing other things is a good way to sustain work.

    Keep taking short meaningful breaks, it helps a lot. I try for a few days off every 6 months to go for long drives/holiday generally escape. Keeps me from burning out
