Many people choose online jobs as a source of income, whether they be traders, writers, etc. Online work is informal because we don't have to wear uniforms and shiny shoes, time is not tied to working hours. Even though there are many benefits of working online, without realizing it, it will have negative impacts such as loneliness, isolation from the environment and friends. So how do you get rid of feeling lonely and isolated from the environment?

I do the same thing. When I finish my online job, I spend time with my family and friends and I even do my hobbies.
I feel isolated, lonely, and depressed at times. Working online will not be easy because it will become a routine. I go to the beach to unwind because I live in the northern surfing capital. I also de-stress by watching a feel-good movie or eating comfort food.
Before it used to be lonely for me and depressing but now that I have my store I feel less lonely. I just work online while waiting for customers. I do meet different people everyday and interact with them and it makes me happy
Working online does make a person feel lonely at times. As for me, I don't work online all the time. I always find time to meet with my family members and friends and for other social activities.
That's perfect explanation how to get rid off loneliness. It's not easy to have your direct contact your computer screen and aircon or fan only. We need humans to talk to and interact
Though I have an offline job but I can suggest to those online full-time to talk to your family every now and then or make a call to your close friends.

I don't feel lonely when am working online. Sometimes, I prefer to have a calm house where everywhere is calm and quiet. I use to prefer early morning and late night when my children have went to sleep.
I don't feel lonely working online because it's something that I've been doing for so many years right now and I've already gotten very used to it that it doesn't bother me anymore.
I can feel you with this concern. It has been more than 8 years that I am working online as an ESL Teacher. I never felt bored or even lonely because I meet students every day through video calling as a mode of teaching online.
As long as I am making enough money from the job that I'm doing online, I will never be bored because that is the most important thing and making money always makes me happy.
So far I don't feel lonely. I really enjoy working online, because by working online I am close to my family. Apart from that, I am always connected with friends via WhatsApp and even on the mylot and RIF sites I communicate a lot via inbox with friends from all over the world.
