I work remotely in a shared working space, but I'm the only person from my company there.
I thought it would better than working from home, on my own all the time, but in a way it ends up worse. I'm in an office with a load of other people but I can't talk to any of them. It can feel a lot more isolating than if I was just sitting alone at home.
The only time I see friends is at weekends, so if I don't go out on one weekend, I can easily go 6 days a week without having a face to face chat with an actual real person.
It's been a big shift from my previous company where going to work felt like going and hanging out with my mates.
I'm not sure how long I'll be able to do this, I feel it can't be good for your mental health long term.
