27/m, it keeps getting worse

Let me start off by stating that this all happened within a week and my birthday was a part of this week.

Monday, my computer got hacked. I had to leave work early to do damage control so that none of my financials were taken. I recently gained back access to a majority of my accounts and created an encrypted bank for my passwords. I lost two non-major accounts.

Tuesday, I suffer an arm injury after falling down the stairs (major rug burn) which is still healing.

Wednesday, US and Israel strike Iran (this so important and not politically charged). My mom and sister are both near those countries. Their flights got cancelled and they’re stuck because tickets cost so much.

Thursday, my ac unit for upstairs portion of the house goes out. Had to call my handy guy. It was my birthday and I spent it panicking.

Friday at 2am, my sister calls crying because they’re stuck in a country and can’t find any reasonable flights. I spend two hours searching and find the best possible options, book it, then go back to bed.

Friday in general, sleep deprived at work, searchi my FB marketplace for parts and hope it’s a simple issue.

Saturday, my friends celebrated their birthday with me but one of them brought their girlfriend that we’ve never met before. Irritated but was trying to hold back that meeting new people isn’t really good at the moment. He’s attached at the hip to her and ditches us for her. He can do it, just don’t casually include her without all of us agreeing.

Sunday, the WHOLE ac unit needs to be replaced. I’m the only one in the country. I gotta finance it. My finances are screwed. My mental state is screwed. I’m laughing maniacally as it just keeps getting worse.

How is everyone else doing at 27?
