I didn't stop learning to code per se, but I did drop it 3 or 4 times over the course of a few years because the results were far too abstract to appreciate, or to even understand why do I code at all. Maybe I'm too much of a visual person, but unless I see why does a certain peace of code exists - or should exist - I can't really begin to analyze and perceive it properly. I still can't grasp the backend of the websites, for example. On the other hand, I easily grasped how CSS works as well as video game code in GameMaker because you can actually see and experience what you make.
