Working from home is lonely; that's just the way it is. Motivation can be easier to come by if you find somewhere else to work sometimes, like a library or cafe. When I was at my greatest depths of despair from living in a new city with no nearby friends and working long hours from home, I found that I could escape if I started attending events in the local entrepreneur community. Just do something...anything to get away from working at home with nobody around. Even a little interaction goes a long way, and being good at conversation takes practice. I would also suggest surrounding yourself with as much outdoor greenery as you can (time of year permitting). It's really therapeutic.
