Nursing for an introvert who hates people.

Post Body
Okay I (32m) don't hate people, but I do get tired of them very quickly. I feel like the jobs that I have been working are wearing me tf out and that's with me working just 36 with a few shifts picked up here and there. I went with jail nursing out of school and that has been a decent fit, but still exhausting. I'm working my first psych job and boy is this not for me. I get that compassion fatigue is an issue but I think my compassion in general is just lower than others I work with.
What I'm wondering is if there are nursing jobs that might work better for me. Maybe OR, insurance, whatever. I'm just looking for something that doesn't leave me feeling drained and questioning my career choice every day and instead feeling like I accomplished something. I'm considering a change in career but if I can find something in the field that I'm already in, that would be best. I'm still paying off debt so more schooling is a last resort. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thanks ahead to those who respond. Cheers!
Edit: Wow thanks for all the awesome comments/suggestions! Getting off from work now and I'm excited to hear that many folks like myself have found fulfilling jobs in nursing.
