Oh shit is that what's happened to me?
How can I undo it?

Hobbies and community.
Find something that you want to get better at and do it. A lot. Seeing yourself progress is insurmountable when it comes to getting out of the rut.
As far as community, find a local group or meet up that does something you’re into and join it. Just by interacting with others, it can get you out of your own head.

I worked a job where I had to tell people they'd lost all their data on a near-daily basis. I gradually became very clinical about it, completely without empathy. Not rude, just: "this is what happened and here's what we can do to fix it."
It took witnessing a surprising act of genuine compassion from a coworker to spark it in me again. I later thanked him and told me he'd saved me; I don't think he fully understood the magnitude of the change he inspired.
