Screwed

I just want to know exact meaning of screwed.
Most of the time I see this word used by many people on twitter.

e.g.

1. I'd be screwed
I think here "screwed" is used as an adjective
Is it similar with wasted or ruined?

2. you screwed me
It's verb & it means you cheated me?

3.If my parents really knew me,
I'd be screwed adjective meaning idk?

4. Screwed again.
verb : cheated again?

5. You might have ruined my past and screwed up my present.
adjective : You make my present unhappy and depressing ?

Some More confusing examples are : 1. Screwed music 2. you screwed me over 3. I am screwed 4. they've been screwed over
