Tried a co-living space in Austin for 3 months and my productivity tanked

I saw a massive before and after difference in my work output after moving into a co-living spot near South Congress. The first month I was pumped, making new friends and networking every night. By month two, I was averaging maybe 3 solid hours of work a day because people kept wanting to hang out or chat in the common areas. That third month I hit rock bottom, barely finishing two small gigs. Has anyone else tried a co-living setup and found it wrecked their focus instead of helping?

Man that sounds exhausting, I get how draining that nonstop social vibe can be.

Yeah @carr.luna, I'm so socially drained I need a nap just from reading your reply.
