At the very least, it doesn&#x27;t help. I currently work remote, and I&#x27;ve definitely had more depressive thoughts being alone so damned much. I&#x27;ve also had plenty of thoughts when working in an office with lots of great people.<p>Part of me wonders if part of what makes me a good developer also hurts my mental health. I have to focus on the grin realities of a situation. I can&#x27;t just pretend things are all fuzzy and nice.
