As the title suggests really.
I am WFH for the next 6 months minimum so will have no interaction with any adults for weeks on end.
I have 2 very young children and a husband who works away. He is away at the moment and not returning until Xmas.
Any superficial friendships I have built up in the past always fizzle out because I work full time and always have the children. I cannot simply do a spontaneous couple of hours at the pub for example. I have no family support whatsoever. I cannot start a hobby in the evenings or weekends because of the kids.
I'm not looking for a solution, just coping strategies really. I am desperately lonely. I see people on video conferences every day, but it's not the same.
There is only so much Netflix / housework / social media (which I have cut down on lots due to it making me miserable) I can do to keep myself occupied.
Thanks in advance.
