If your funk is with flying in general, then go have fun. Whatever it is that gets you going about flying, go do it. Get a hundred dollar hamburger, go fly landings at your favorite grass strip, or yank and bank out in a practice area.
If the IR intimidates you, then see if you can get a CFI to do an initial lesson with you on a nice IFR day. They can have you do the basic attitude stuff in the soup and then demo an instrument approach. That should up your motivation to fly in clouds.
