I'd move to a co-working space or simply rent a small office. I did that while freelancing and startupping and never had trouble starting the day.

However don't be shy to take @dkns's advice try a professionals help, there's nothing wrong taking care about mental health too.

I completely agree with this. While there can be many other issues that are worth seeking professional advice for, being on ones own for prolonged periods is definitely bad for one's mental health. I recently watched a documentary on the effects of solitary confinment on prison inmates and saw that I was developing very mild symptoms described by working on my own at home for many days consecutively. Even having people in view helps immeasurably.
