Hello Banji,

I'm glad you like the post.

Regarding your question: Yes, I had felt down while working remotely in the past, because as you said, there is not enough communication with people or co-workers.

That is the reason why I point out that we need to make a conscious effort on Socialize. My approach to the matter was to reach out to some old friends and begin to go out regularly and make new friends on the process. I also start to play video games with some friends more frequently than before, and before the pandemic, I use to go to some coffee shops to work from there.

Regarding the internal communication with my co-workers, I have the luck of working in a company that is focused and make the remote employees feel energized and motivated to interact with each other. Take a look here if you are interested in how they do it: x-team.com/blog/energize-remote-te...
