My guess is that you have significantly exhausted the extent of your interests and common interactions. It happens.
That’s to say, for example, you’ve read, seen, discussed, etc. almost every sci-fi series in existence. There’s some you haven’t interacted with but you would have hit the new ones and all the significant older ones. In which case there’s really nothing left for you to consume besides minutiae/very small things (you ran the well dry).
The same can said for interactions with people. You’re having the same conversations you’ve had before. Sure some of the specific details change but the core remains the same.
If this at all sounds right, I’d suggest expanding your interests and social circle. For interests, I’d suggest something close to your current interests and look up the highest rated components of that interest to look into. Using the Sci-fi example, fantasy may be a good place to look and Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Mistborn, etc. maybe be good places to start.
For people, expanding your social cycle can be tough. If you haven’t already you can try and pair an interest of yours with a group that focuses on that. Example could be RPG gaming and joining a Table Top RPG group. Another option is taking classes in a new interest. You’ll likely meet new people with a similar interest as you. Another option is volunteering. There’s lots of organizations or mutual aid societies out there that would welcome additional members. That’ll give you new people to talk to while helping others (win-win).

Regardless, best of luck with everything :)
