Dave,

I work at home as well and I've found the same to be true.

I had to go to Las Vegas Friday for a last minute trade show and I was completely exhausted Saturday and even Sunday. In fact, I still don't feel like I've recovered (of course, walking aisle after aisle in high heels doesn't exactly help).

I wonder if working at home shelters us to the point of being less able to handle the regular stress of "outside" life?

This is something I've pondered more than once.

I find that being on Adderall helps - plus, just getting out in the morning and actually GOING somewhere helps as well.

I've even thought that working at home has made me a bit agoraphobic (something I never thought I was when I was younger).

Lee

p.s. I also wonder if depression makes us more desperate to take advantage of our few energy spurts, to the point of exhaustion. I'm definitely a "go in spurts" kind of person.
