Ask HN: I've told everyone about my startup and its been harder than I thought

Hacker News - Sat, 07/18/2026 - 3:12am

Im feeling immense pressure . I told everyone about this startup I've been working on, and Its been deteriorating my mental health more and more. Im running out of $$.

I dont want to let everyone down. but I feel too tired to work, but im too tired to embarrass myself and quit. I dont want to quit on my mission.

I feel so alone. I isolated myself from friends and family. I talked to thousands of my users. I dont know what to do.

Would like some advice. Kind of feeling doomful/dreadful

I am pretty young. (mid 20s)
