Any chance you’re in autistic burnout?

27 and in major burnout. Even my fluent languages are suffering unless I’m masking very highly, which is only prolonging the burnout…

Reduce demands and rest. Unlike depression it’s important to give yourself time instead of pushing yourself to socialize and get out. Stay in your comfort zone and try to engage with activities you enjoy and special interests.
