I'm coding for only 3+ years but I already had my down spike recently. But it was mostly related to the environment and the mental problems I experienced it passed.

Another thing I'm practicing to avoid burnout is learning. When I learn something completely new I got my spark back.
For example, my main specialization is web dev and I'm doing it for my job. So in my free time, I'm for example learn game development which is a completely new area for me and it excites me a lot.
