Exhausted from social interaction

I'm wondering if this is a post-covid thing as I can't honestly remember how it used to affect me but is anyone else exhausted from social occasions these days? I was at a lunch yesterday and had to make conversation with several acquaintances- I had a nice time but I came home absolutely knackered. I also struggle to look forward to things and find everything effortful.

I have young children so I make sure they have a variety of clubs and days out etc but honestly I want to just go to bed and shut everything out. I'm starting to wonder if I'm depressed although I don't feel particularly sad - I just don't feel much at all. Has anyone had similar? I can't even get up the motivation to do much about it.

Yeh I've been feeling exactly the same, to the point that I've pretty much stopped socialising. Ìm an introvert and I think covid gave me the change to really relax and enjoy being one. Trying to go back to being social has been really difficult. I've also had terrible anxiety and a touch of depression too. I started on escitaloprám a fee months ago and I'm starting to feel better.
