Recharge. Someone else mentioned being an introvert with an extrovert job. That resonates.

After talking to people all week and dealing with their whims, I lose steam.

I find it impossible to do the things other people find fulfilling. It all seems like more work. I'm exhausted to the core.

More specifically, low energy stuff. Watch TV, read, whatever. The last thing I want is to burn more energy/talk.

Oddly, typing and such doesn't count. Being able to opt out immediately I suppose.
