Working from home during lockdown

Whenever I heard a friend or a colleague telling me that some firm was allowing them to work from home, I was envious of them. 

I had tried doing it once or twice in the past, but stopped it since I felt that I was either working more than usual or was doing less work. That is when I decided that I would apply for leave and then work from home if necessary. That way, I would never have to worry about doing less work.

The last four days have been strenuous. Have been working from home due to the lock down and I feel as if I have been working more hours than when I was in office. I felt so tired on the 4th day, that I had to log off and take a break after every three to four hours. I felt so drained and my energy level was low.

I then realized that I missed being in office - walking around and meeting colleagues in person, going for lunch, riding to the office. At home, I have the whole of our first floor to myself and then it is just me, my laptop and phones. Although it feels good to stay at home and have lunch with my parents, the rest of the time, Iam all alone. 

I just don't know how people work from home everyday. It is quite boring. I just don't know how Iam going to continue doing this for the next few weeks 😔😑

Well, let us just say this has been a different experience for me.
