I'm nearing the end of my 20's and feel the same way. 1. I think it's because of the hard logical core of our jobs. Always thinking of edge-cases etc. It makes this pure logical part overly influencial. 2. There's absolutely no need for much social interaction to do your job well. This gets you rusty at a common skill, small talk and finding commonalities. Since you're rusty, even doing it is a bit exhausting. I def feel like I've gotten too hard logical and it's taken away from what should be very relaxed, festive, and straightforward interactions. It's very tough to throw away a job where you're making good money in an efficient amount of hours. I would say the solution is to put yourself in hobbies where you have to converse. Language meetups, running meetups, friend group outtings, etc. Also get into a side-project where you have to converse a lot - building stuff together quickly with friends on the weekend in person. Look at copywriting and maybe even just post random Youtube videos describing what you're doing in your life.
