"Nervous breakdown"?: "nervous breakdown" is a popular term with little real definition. People may use it to mean all kinds of things -- like depression; despondency; giving up; feeling overwhelmed with anxiety; psychotic and hallucinating/delusional; intoxicated on alcohol or drugs, etc. If you're concerned about yourself, it's best to speak with your doctor. Meeting with a psychiatrist or therapist can help also.
