Distractions are orthogonal to space.

It's generally not productive to play "who has it worse".

I have a spouse and a kid, and though it's super taxing trying to get any work done, at least I have these super great relationships to lean on. I know that if I were on month six of having roommates that were not close friends, I'd be going absolutely bonkers.

Of course every personality type deals with this differently, as we all need different things in life. And if I didn't have such a luckily great family life I could easily be miserable. I seem to notice more breakups and divorces recently, but that's hard to quantify beyond my acquaintances. Maybe a social scientist will measure this.
