Not a long break, but you know. Stretch out, experiment, draw what you want for a bit. Get silly or experimental.
And if you really still feel walled in, try setting up a 3D scene so you really can conceptualize them in the reality of things.

"Don't get upset with your paintings. If you ever, in your whole painting career, do a painting your totally satisfied with, you might as well stop. Your painting career is over. You have nowhere else to go. The fact that you're dissatisfied and you can see room for improvement is a blessing! Cherish it! I love people who are plagued with dissatisfaction. I hope you always will be too." -Bob Ross

Hey, Toki. A longtime missing youtuber who recently returned had this problem which a major youtuber encouraged them to the tune of the words I'm going to directly quote from their comment:
"Hey, as someone who's been watching you for over 10 years and was inspired by your editing style, this was a very nice answer and about the best way this could have been handled. <b>I'm sorry over-ambition and inability to deliver got to you.</b> This destroys a lot of YouTubers, and they feel like they have so much to live up to even when it's not their fault. This last week of new videos out of you has genuinely been one of the happiest weeks of this year, and I don't mean that in a sarcastic asshole kind of way with how the rest of the year's been. <b>Really, just work hard, draw a line somewhere when it comes to scope of a project, and I think we'll be happy to wait for however long it takes. Thank you for being you.</b>"
Emphasis mine.
What I'm trying to say here is...don't let perfectionist tenancies destroy you; a close friend of mine has similar thoughts:
"If you will only put forth,and you are waiting for your -best- then you will either wait a lifetime, or admit you have no desire to grow"
And, ""Yes, DO your BEST,but for the moment you are in, get it out, sounded out, then move on and Always look to grow"
"Whatever you do, do it with your whole ass, and if you aren't doing anything then, you are simply not doing anything."
Don't force yourself to keep ramming into these, remember to just take those breaks when you need them and come back later. Maybe you've got OTB fatigue and just need to work on other forms and shapes for a bit.
Some communal participation might help untwist your brain a fair bit.
