I'd been lucky enough this past year (and change) to be able to work from home. I'd been working from home since late February of 2020. Two weeks ago however my boss informed me that he expects us all to work in the office again. So now I'm a commuter.
I've noticed these past two weeks that as soon as I get home all I want to do is sleep. I have been fairly productive at work (because the work is interesting at the moment), and it isn't until I get home that I feel like all I want to do is crash for four hours.
I need to be getting more than the 6.5 hours of sleep I've been allowing myself lately, but I feel so frustrated in the evening that I don't have any time or energy to do things that I enjoy. I often feel so frustrated that I try to "take back" some of my lost time by staying up extra late working on some project or another, or just playing games.
I'm nearly thirty, I should be developing healthier habits than this; but at the same time I feel unfulfilled and disappointingly mediocre. I just didn't expect that this shift in habit would throw so much of my life off balance.
