I agree with Blue -- alts can be a great way to give yourself a fresh new perspective and rejuvenate your feelings towards your older characters.
Should you not want to make an alt, I would recommend trying to identify what exactly it is about your character that is giving you this feeling. Is it the character, or is it the class? Is it because she's stagnated and has no way to move forward? Try throwing her a curveball, see if shaking her up can help motivate you to play her. Challenge her views through rp, put her somewhere that makes her uncomfortable. Give her something to overcome.
Too, sometimes it does happen where you outgrow your character and the sort of thing you initially built them to play. I know this guy who made this really sweet, naive character, but after a taste of cruelgrimdark rp, he's now ready to move forward by killing the poor character off -- which I am not advocating, but it's the same with books. I think people do sometimes start off in one specific genre or subset and love it to pieces, but after they've glutted themselves on it they'll gravitate towards something new.
In any case, if just thinking about the character is frustrating or demoralizing, it's okay to take a break. Try something else out for awhile; doesn't mean you have to put the character down for good.
