I thought my coworkers were insane during covid, living in their home offices and moving to the outer suburbs. My bosses office was literally his bedroom closet, and he would go entire days without seeing light.^ Maybe taking prescribed speed every day helped with the loneliness. When covid hit I moved into a house with 5 other people and got a job working at a factory. I realized the only person who would get me the social time I require is me.

Everyone is different. Living with five strangers or even anyone who is more distant than a super-close near-lifelong friend (my assumption - apologies beforehand if I’m wrong) sounds like a nightmare to me.
