For the past two weeks I have not been able to write anything that i feel, or even like for that matter. I cant put together multiple elements to create anything nice. I think it might be because I'm to damn in patient. Massive writers block. Wtf do you guys do to get inspired? or to pump out some good work?

What you have to do is get out of your comfort zone so you can add more weapons in your arsenal when you hit the sequencer.

Watch serious nature or science documentaries - works every time.
Something like 'Land of the Tiger' (BBC, made in 96/97) is full of really awesome trance like classical music - someone could really rape that series for trance ideas.
Here is the first bit of one episode - 2.20 for an epic original classical score made for this show that could inspire epic trance, never heard before.
TRUST ME, EVEN IF YOU THINK THIS IS NOT YOUR THING - LET IT WASH OVER YOU A FEW MINUTES

Take a break for 2/3 days.

Watch a Studio Ghibli movie, and then go to bed immediately before you lose that fuzzy feeling.

Good idea as long as he doesn't watch Grave of the Fireflies. He won't feel fuzzy so much as.. uh, what's the word. Suicidal? Yeah that's it.

Just wait. Eventually you'll be inspired again, and probably be making better tunes than you were before. I've been doing this creativity thing a long time now, and it always goes in cycles like that.

Try something totally different, always works for me.

Just do what I do and never expect to make anything good, ever.
Not to say don't strive to do it, but don't open your DAW and think "I'm going to write something amazing, right here, right now". You're just going to wind up disappointed most of the time. No expectations, no disappointments. And when you stumble across an idea that seems good, run with it.
Might be an ass-backwards way of working but it hasn't failed me yet.
