Me

Has anyone managed to break out of this habit? I want to be more social, communal, but it seems to go against my natural proclivities

Sometimes it can be easier to make peace with yourself for who you are than struggle to be someone others would want to be around. Just do things that bring joy in your life and you may end up with others who share your same values.

Just do things that bring joy to your life

This is probably a strange suggestion, but have you tried using Fear? I've noticed it's somewhat easier to be social after consuming any kind of scary content.

Oh that is a great and altogether unique suggestion, thanks!

Might be challenging to scare myself before going to the morning market, but maybe for evening hangouts

It's because people are being conditioned to be hostile to each other. You're suffering because of this attack of connectedness, not because of anything you're doing wrong.
