I think being in the office last week helped my mood for a few reasons:
• Actually focused on work
- Less time on my phone
- Less time available to think about, well... everything
- Actually let myself enjoy the work
• Isolated bubble of normalcy
- Little political talk
- All coworkers are friendly
- Sense of being part of a larger effort
- Office banter
• Different context
- Missing normal habit behavioral triggers
- Novelty
