I've worked remotely for the past several years, so that part has unfortunately not been a benefit for me.
Not being able to go to coffee shops/coworking spaces for socialization, as well as not seeing friends in person has really started taking a toll in terms of depression. I am an introvert, however people often confuse that for not wanting any social interaction. I do prefer to have social interaction, just with close friends and usually in smaller groups (followed by rest after).
I do realize that I am lucky to still have a job and be healthy. Still, it has been a tough time.
