After long working to get 13.10 working nicely, I did some reading on the supposedly stable 14.04 release and decided to do an upgrade. Well, now my Ubuntu is totally destroyed and not working at all.

This is where I wish there were a way to restore the entire system back to what it was before the attempted upgrade.

Is there any help, or am I completely screwed?

Please, no "you should have backed up your entire system before attempting the upgrade" - I don't need to be reminded of this failure.

Could you please elaborate on what is not working ?

As you probably know, there is no downgrade path. Can you access Ubuntu at all and backup what can be backed up ?
