Speaking as someone who is both an introvert, and left an abusive relationship; For me personally, this is the kind of thing that talking and venting with other people, out in the wild or in your trusted circle, is for.
Easier said than done if you don't have those relationships already, but whether it's family, friends, that nice neighbour you trust or a bunch of friendly strangers. Human connections helped me massively.
If it's a trusting enough relationship, you might be able to say "I have stuff going on, do you mind if I talk to you about it for a bit?". Otherwise, just relaxing with friendly people and re-establishing what a normal, healthy, happy social dynamic is and bathing in it can sometimes be enough.
