I refer to it as “I’m feeling quiet right now” which means the effort involved in seeing others and being seen is just exhausting. I’m not mad at you, I’m just out of social juice.
It’s like being tired at the gym: I like exercising, but not when I’m tired, because then it starts to hurt. That sometimes gets people to rethink things.
That's a great way to put it, love the analogy too.
