The thing that really struck me in reading through this is the term "...as if they didn't know". It seems to me that this could be a bit too much assumption on your part. Perhaps because you have been a bit disconnected they don't really know what's going on, and letting them know would really help.
Also, even if they do know what's going on, it could be really nice to hear from you that you care but are just too lacking in spoons right now. That's something understandable, not angering (at least in my book) and communicates the important thing: that you care.
I think it might also help you let go of your anxiety about it by making a connection that you fear is damaged and by making it manifest rather than theoretical. Those darned theoreticals can really clog up your brainmeats ;)
And as others have said, take care of yourself. The good people will understand once you get your head back up and find / regenerate / recreate / spawn the spoons to reconnect.
