Burnout doesn't always have to be exhaustion-focused. I'm no expert but to me it sounds like you're disengaged/apathetic moreso than exhausted. Boreout is another common term that gets thrown around on hacker news/reddit. I think as software engineers we don't always consider the social element much, we tend to focus on the problems we are solving day in and day out, but the people are a critical piece of the puzzle as well. I similarly had a lot of coworkers I cared for leave for other jobs, and that ended up hitting me harder than I thought it would. Best of luck to you.
