I knew a guy who quit his Wall St job and worked on investing/trading from home. Nice house, financially well off, kids, working wife etc but he hardly ever got out of the house. In 2 years he developed this lung condition (apparently there was some bug in the air conditioning that effected him more than anyone else cuz of the amt of time he was home...I forget the name of the condition) and now he needs to walk around with oxygen tanks for the rest of his life. So check those air filters regularly, if you plan to spend time in the same room for too long.

Also you can leave your room. Find spaces in the neighborhood that aren't used much or used throughout the day - a beach, the woods, a park, rooftops, yards, empty parking lots, terraces etc etc. If it has some sun(for that vitamin D), greenery and breeze even better.
