I've gone weeks without leaving, or for that matter even seeing the outside of my house before. I'm talking inside of my house for 24 hours at a time for weeks on end.... that was about 2 years ago now.

This week has been a tough week to get back to work though. I just came home from a trip for some not so pleasant family matters and just don't feel like prospecting or being involved in the world right now... haha. I'm on day 2 and I'm getting stir crazy already! I don't know how I did it before... :p


So, how long have you gone in complete seclusion just working on whatever it is that you've got going?

    Haha.. I must be the only guy that sits in his dark office working for endless hours.

    I live near Chicago. It's not uncommon for folks here to stay cooped up for weeks on end in the winter time. However, once winter is over I can't stay inside for more than 8 hrs.

    About 2 weeks! I COULD stay at home for MONTHS, if I wanted. I have dry milk, protein powders, mixes, etc... and do most stuff ONLINE.

      That made me think of a new niche market!! Thanks!



      As for me I need to surf 3-4 days per week, so... no caveman here.

    Yeah, I used to get sucked into 2 week stretches sometimes.... Now I force myself to get out of the house!

    In fact, I think I'm going to go have dinner somewhere just so I can get some fresh air.

    I stayed home for five days straight once because I was very sick. Oh wait after I had the baby I was home for weeks. My husband was always running to the store and taking care of odds and ends.

    Only about three days. I had my worst mood swing so I decided to stay in solitude until my head cools.

    I could only stay in my house without leaving for 1 day max, it would drive me crazy

    A week, and only because I had just had a baby at that time (that was a long time ago).
    Now, I get to go outside everyday. Sometimes, it's just to get the mail at the gate but that's still technically outside. Honestly speaking I spend only a few minutes outside most days, but the length of time outside does not come into it, right?
    In the past 2 weeks, I have had the chance to go swimming (sea, not pool), spending all day and part of the night at the beach, two times.
