Psychological uncertainty is tiring. When I'm dealing with a problem and I have no idea how to solve it, it causes anxiety and I feel drained. When I learn more about the domain and have a framework for processing the problem, then I feel far more assured and energetic in handling it.
I think dealing with diverse people is the same. When I have a better understanding and "frameworks" to interpret what's going on, I feel a great more certain and confident, and this makes difficult interactions easy. This means I can do more "extroverted" activities and genuinely enjoy them - with less uncertainty/anxiety attached. I still go home to fully recharge - I'm not sure if it's possible to change that, but I can drastically change how long that battery lasts.
