What do you mean by "There's no place like home" during the COVID-19 pandemic?

"There's no place like home", or should everybody thought. Almost everybody I know complains as there are some people who can't stand being at home. It's like being a prisoner on a house arrest. Probably on the most cases, some can't think of any good activities indoors that's why some people feel the need to stay out of the house because they are bored. So even if it is not important, they will just go out. They don't see themselves staying inside the four walls doing nothing. On the other hand, this is a bliss for those who are introverts and those who wants complete solitude all by themselves. In Japan, hikikomori (translates as "being confined" in Japanese) which is considered an "acute social withdrawal" of adults and it is extremely discouraged by some because these involves boring activities and it makes an individual withdraw from society. They seek extreme degrees of isolation and confinement. So in the most extreme cases, staying inside the room without going out takes more than a month. In my personal case, my cousin did it for 6 months and she survived. Also, there are severe cases that some stayed for 1-2 years inside: not going out; just having food deliveries, groceries via online and that's it. I am an introvert by nature and I normally talk with other co-workers and friends when needed. So being at home for a month with enough stock is okay for me. To give you an idea about an introvert mindset; it means; "Less talk, less mistakes". So it means less mistakes, less stress. And less stress means more happiness. It is the same deal with being alone in the house finding total quiet time. It is quite boring to most people but this is extremely helpful for introverts since they won't be judged why aren't they going out of their houses to socialize. Hey, it is quarantine anyway so why bother going outside, right? And for an introvert; "There's no place like home". Would you agree on this?
