I share the same feelings. After covid hit I learned that I am not that self-sufficient and I need “the world” to recognize my work. Problem is that, WFH makes it harder to prove yoursef, so I just work my brains off and hope that someday I will prove myself out there. Other thing is that I like to do a lot of “solo” stuff — play guitar, work on side projects, etc. and this does not get along well with family dinners or being in a hotel somewhere. If I do not work at least couple hours a day, even weekends I get really grumpy. I always have some goals and projects to do, ever since a teenager, so I do not think I can and want to change.
