1. I'm not saying it's not more of an issue for some than others, but I still think learning to navigate that is part of life. It depends a bit on what kind of life you want, but I think we're inherently social beings, and learning how to navigate difficult social settings is important, even if difficult.
2. I'm pretty empathetic and emotionally reactive, and honestly I've found that WFH makes this worse in a lot of ways. Working IRL helps humanize people. A disagreement over text might make me feel like I'm being attacked, but it's easier to see it more as just a discussion if it's happening IRL. People that I view as being malicious start to seem more human and relatable IRL. I'm better able to vent and commiserate with others IRL than over text.
