> When I say people I'm working from home, they look with pitty.

That sounds odd. Pity is usually expressed when you're in an unfortunate position you had/have no control over. Most people (should) understand that most people work from home not out of force, but out of choice.

When work and home become one, it gives the impression you're always on call / aren't able to separate the two. Could be an issue the other people have, so they imagine you being the same.

I do remember when enforced work-from-home started almost two years ago, a lot of people didn't have a ready-made space like a home office and complained about exactly that problem.

Well, in the beginning this was the case. But as time passed, some people returned to the office, our office didn't. Working from home has its benefits, but it also isolates you, makes it harder to seperate personal/professional life.
