So, you decided to continue working from home. For context, do you have your own home/apt? Or do you have roommates? Or partner/kids?

I've seen in other threads that this becomes a factor. Having other people around (though sometimes distracting) keeps you fresh and helps prevent loneliness. Perhaps your motivation to do out-of-the-house activities help.

It's an apt, my own, no roommates. So it's great for getting work done, because there aren't tons of distractions.

But on the other hand, you absolutely do need to be very on top of scheduling activities, and make sure you get out of the house at least once a day. Friends, romantic partner, sports, groups, these things are all key no matter if you work from home or not, but especially if you work from home.
