You end up working longer than normal hours and anxiety can set in if you don't make the effort to get out more.
The separation of work-pressure/feeling tense/etc -vs- home/relaxed/comfort/explore is something to be considered.

The brain of Humans like any animal needs 'down-time' and a 'safe-space' to feel secure and potential to explore.
Renew and restore. And think.
------
It is ingrained in our very nature.
The success of Hunter-Gather explains this in the long run.
The shift to agriculture and stability.

So my ironic advice is to try to not to take work into the home.
-Have a separate area for different modes.
-Don't conduct work or anything other leading to bad feelings within that comfort zone.
-Don't feel stressed in bed. Change mattresses. Partners. Whatever. YMMV. Talk shyte out and know problems ahead of time.
-No political TV or internet entertainment while in bed.
-Go to sleep content.
-Get yourself outside that entire zone of thought when the inner core feels not right.

Whoever is in charge of a situation should be temporarily in charge as long as it works.
For now.
