Struggles with motivation in hobbies

I have always struggled with finding the right "thing for me". This was until a few years ago I discovered bouldering, which I felt was perfect. Over time, my passion obviously went up and down, but recently, I've felt that my passion has completely gone, and I honestly don't see it coming back. However, when I told my family I felt it might be time to quit, they were confused since they thought that I loved it and also thought it was the "only thing I enjoy" which at some point was true but isnt anymore. Hearing this made me anxious about my personality.
With summer approaching, I fear that I will have nothing to do other than a few plans I have if I do quit, and from a wider perspective, I fear that, because of what my family said, since many people see climbing as such a big part of me, I will also become much less interesting as a person. Recently I've also felt like i need more hobbies, in particular I have been craving something creative, for my own mental health and also partially to mitigate this fear of being uninteresting that I have developed.
I need advice on what to do, is it okay to quit climbing immediatly or should I try to avoid giving up such a massive part of who I am so quickly? If anyone else has had similar situations, is it possible that my passion will return in full force? And what can I do to avoid feeling empty over the summer both hobby-wise and in general?
