Have your gaming habits stayed the same from before you "fell off"? If the answer is yes, then sure, there is something there.
I am in my 40s and feel like I have never been better at games—but I have also kept them a priority in my life. Just like any activity that requires skill, if you aren't actively doing it, you will lose your sharpness. Play more and I am sure it will come back.
At the same time, there is nothing wrong with playing a game at a difficulty that gives you the most enjoyment. There are those options in place for a reason.
