If someone asked, "How are you?" right now and you had to answer honestly instead of politely, what would you say?

I'm stressed out. Probably the most stressed out I've ever been. I know that in the grand scheme of things a lot of what I'm going through right now isn't that big of a deal compared to some other people's problems, but for me right now I just can't handle it all.

It seems like every friend group I have decided to turn their backs on me at the same time, when I probably needed them the most.

My landlord is trying to evict me for bullshit reasons that I'm sure will not hold up in court, but I really don't have the time or money to deal with it right now. If he succeeds in evicting me I feel like I'll have literally no where to go.

My roommate, who is one of my best friends, is in the hospital with a traumatic brain injury, and it's starting to look like his family has been lying to us about his condition and he may be much worse off than they are leading me and my other roommate to believe.

On top of that I recently broke up with my long term girlfriend, who is now dating a guy who lives on the floor below me. So I get to see her everyday and constantly be reminded of all of the stupid decisions that led to me ruining that relationship.

The one silver lining I have is the startup that me and one of my best friends are desperately trying to get up off the ground. I feel like this is my one shot to really do something great, and if it doesn't work out I'm really not sure what I'm going to do with my life. While the chance to succeed is exciting, constant stress of possible failure looming over our heads is exhausting, and the amount of time I'm putting in to our startup while also working full time leaves me exhausted to the point of falling asleep at my desk almost every day.

Like I said before, I know that in the grand scheme of things my problems are nothing compared to some other people's, but right now it seems like I'm just barely holding everything together, and if I make one misstep my whole life is going to come crashing down around me.
