Loneliness is the hardest thing to overcome when you work from home - especially in our industry where you work long hours.

Even if you're married and your partner works in the industry with you loneliness can still be a problem.

You have to set aside time to get out and get with people. You have to work at maintaining friendships and you even have to go out and make new ones.

Working out may sound like a dumbass solution but if you go to a gym then it's not so dumb but go the same time every day - talk to people that you see there - get to know the staff - friendships can develop from that.

But don't keep sitting at home by yourself all day every day because if you do then you're stuffed.
