Well... it took about 4 years, maybe more, but I finally started drawing again. Out of practice and the fact that I now have very limited use of my drawing hand means my portraits aren't as detailed as they used to be, plus I'm not using photoshop anymore. It got too complicated for my poor little brain. The program i'm using now is much simpler, but it means i have to make hundreds of tiny adjustments to the flow/pixels/opaquness of my work everytime I draw something, thus it takes days and days to do instead of just hours - still, it's good enough for me.
