I like my job, and really want to do it well. But with the combination of working from home -- which has its perks, but makes it difficult to separate personal and work life or connect with coworkers, personal stress, lack of sleep due to parenting a young child, and my close family going through difficult times far away, it's been hard to concentrate. Give me your tips to help me concentrate better and work effectively.

I work in tech in an engineering/lead role.

Most people tell me to take it easy, ask my manager for flexibility, take time off, etc, but I don't want to! I'll be even unhappier. I just want to work effectively, because being productive will make me happy and hopeful, and there's not much else in my life that will right now.

I avoid the news and too much non-work screen time, but some of it works its way in somehow.

I have childcare during working hours.
