Are you becoming Feral Working from Home during the Virus?

For starters, I am a loaner. I am self reliant and very independent. I don't ask or look for help, and I do not seek out people or even a woman for companion anymore, with an ex-wife and two teenage children who live with me.

Since the Virus Quarantine started, I work from home and only go to the store when I need stuff. I no longer go to school or after school activities. For nearly two months now, everything seems alien to me now.

The oddest part, I don't enjoy work anymore. Deep down I don't understand why I do it, but know I need a paycheck. I have to pysche myself up to make it through the day.

All the people I use to talk to, I rarely ever see anymore. I don't talk to any of my kid's friends parents or go to the activities anymore. But oddly, I don't feel any connection to them. I now have a little anxiety thinking about spending any extra time on that stuff.

The scary thing for me is that I am losing the need for money. I am getting to wonder why I am wasting my time getting it? And I am now very conscious about all I do, and see everything I am around is for them, that world I use to belong to, and not excited to rejoin. Being conscious, I am wanting to belong.

I did some research, and found this happens to men. They go lone wolf. And become a kind of mountain man who lives away from people. They often live in rural and mountainous regions to get away from people.

    Yes, because I'm not essential what I have done so far in my adult life.
