This article isn't about remote work, but being a social hermit.

In my experience, if you have difficulty making and sustaining friendships without the heightened social context of a dorm floor/office water cooler, then you're going to wind up experiencing a bit of cabin fever when you are removed from those environments.

I had to make conscious efforts to go out, make friends and do things outside work when I moved away and lived on my own. You're responsible for your own mental health, not your company.
