And I went back to work and I started seeing people again.

And I felt so awkward and rusty.

And it just, my interactions, they were so clunky.

And I didn't really feel that good after COVID.

And I didn't understand it at the time.

And I thought, wow, I've just kind of fallen out of the practice of socializing.

But I think probably like these social reward systems in the brain were kind of like shut down for a while.

And then they were kind of having to fire back up.

And luckily, I feel normal again.

But this might be happening on like a micro scale in people's lives all the time.

You work five days a week from home.

You don't see friends.

Saturday night you go out.

And you're like, this is okay.

And then Sunday you see friends and you're like, oh, now I feel good.

And then it kind of resets.

And a big message that I try to send through my book is we just need to be paying attention to our social lives.

There's so much value there.

And there's so much information there.

But we treat our social lives like leisure extension of our life that like if you want to, you can hang out with friends on the weekends.
