Sid, I don't know your situation-- but could maybe have written something similar, though I sense you may be more introverted than myself. I don't handle stress well, either. I've attributed my 'freakishness' to abuse and sensitivity. However, I would never use that terminology on you or anyone else here.
Sometimes I think of editing work, or something private and self-directed. Just talking can wipe me out. Good luck to you finding an optimal, appreciative environment.
Two quotes:
One, a song title: Help, I'm Alive
Two, a NYer cartoon:
An alien in a lab coat writing on a prescription pad. A man sitting on the exam table. "I'm going to give you something for your humanity."
