Anyone else find it hard to switch off after work when you're working from home?

My laptop is literally always right there and I feel guilty every time I close it before everything on my list is done 😅 I know logically that I need to stop at some point but when you work for yourself there's always something else you could be doing. I've tried setting a hard stop time but then a client messages and I feel like I have to reply straight away or they'll think I'm unreliable. starting to feel like I'm always half-working and never fully off. does anyone actually manage to properly switch off or is this just part of freelance life? if you've figured this out I genuinely need to know what you did.
