All jokes aside,Wallethub's latest poll ranked the stress level of citizens in each state and Nevada currently ranks as the 7th most stressful. The study further divides the findings into micro-categories to help further explain the overall stress rankings.

Nevada ranks 2nd nationally in family-related stress and 6th in work related stress, but oddly enough, Nevada ranks 20th in money-related stress.

Nevada also has ranks 2nd in highest divorce rate and 3rd in fewest psychologists per capita, which would explain why the family-related stress rate is high.

Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi rank as the most stressful states.
