"I also tend to work very hard and don't know when to take a break or take recreational time."
i remember when I used to do this, my friends used to have to force me out of the house, i would look at the sun and say "what the fuck is that!?"
I freelance again now, but I don't do that anymore.

I recently got a puppy to help with working from home all the time. It's really helped, now if only I could figure out a way to stop his whining in his cage at night and when I put him in it during the day.

Structure is the key. If you work from home and you have a sloppy routine you'll get depressed. Sad fact of life but humans are more comfortable with regiment.
Do 9.00am to 6.00am and have a life outside your work. One day the work with abandon you and you'll be left with nothing. Its better to do less work and be poor than to do everything and be rich.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have three week's work to deliver by 9.00am tomorrow morning...

Put the radio on, I find this helps a lot if your feeling a bit too solitary.
Get some fresh air at lunch time/
