I'm an introvert. Working from home and remotely for extended periods is actually good for me, psychologically. I don't rely on work for my social interaction. I also worked with a remote employee who was very, very extroverted. He lived with his family, had several video gaming leagues and several in-person RPG groups going all at the same time. Oh, and he also had a dog and a cat. I guess the moral of the story is, prescribing general office policies under the assumption any work from home employee is a potential suicide risk is misguided. People are responsible for looking after their own mental health, not the company.
