Nervous Breakdown?

[PonyFunk 155]

I can't really think of any specific crazy moments I had, but I think we've all been in Twilight's shoes...ur, hooves once or twice. So, when did it happen and what was it over?

I lost my bucking when my step brother throw up on my 80's Miss Cheerilee Plush, was working on it for a few days... kind of my own fault I was the one who got him super bucking drunk. Oh well live and learn... live and learn.

I've had a nervous breakdown as a result if my Manic Depressive Disorder.

 

I hit rock bottom and I was just... A mess

[Moonlight 7,286]

I tend to have them quite a lot but when thinking of one, one incident comes to mind.

 

A little while ago, my grades were slipping and I didn't understand a thing even though I was trying my best. It resulted in sleeping problems, upset stomach, breathing problems, severe fear, fast heart-beat, withdrawal from others, never showing a hint of emotion, dizziness, and "living in my head". All that combined with constant crying didn't help a damn thing. 

 

However, all of those things are starting to become a constant cycle now, even with no cause.

considering i used to self harm and attempted suicide etc, I'm not sure if I can say it was a "nervous breakdown" or just severe depression...

 

either way, i'd hit low in my time. now i have to live with scars on my legs and throwing up blood occasionally due to taking random pills. I regret it a lot.

Sounds like severe anxiety to me

 

I used to have really bad panic attacks, but not a full blown nervous breakdown of any kind.  I try to watch my mental health and make time to care for it when needed.

I've had anxiety attacks so thats about as close to a breakdown as i've ever skirted.

I had anger issues in my pre-teen years, followed then by depression. I'm not sure if I had a breakdown somewhere in between. Hard to remember nowadays.

I have had plenty of nervous breakdowns. It's terrible. >.< 

 

Mostly caused by stress at home, though.

I definitely had something to that effect years ago... In attempting to not go into too much detail (this is something that I still have an extremely hard time getting myself to talk about) but still making sense... It was medical related... It happened when the line of which I felt was bearable was suddenly crossed over. I thought that things would never be the same, and become way too unbearable at that point. I couldn't help it, I didn't know what was happening.

 

At that point I quickly learned what "losing one's mind" meant. I also learned what it's like to be suicidal for real, because had what triggered this not 'calmed down' (I'll put it that way), I might - well, I'll say probably, not just might -  have found a way. The thoughts were certainly rushing through my mind, and I was home alone... Not that it mattered, my mind was too far gone there for a short time for me to even look past those thoughts.

 

That's scary... But I've had the symptoms come back, and each time my reaction has been less and less severe... But there's no reason to celebrate, as I'm essentially merely biding time here.

I don't think I've ever had a complete breakdown. Whenever things started getting stressful at home, I would usually just leave or go upstairs.

 

Sometimes I get depressed for absolutely no reason, when that happens I usually stay up really late and listen to music about death and stuff, which actually calms me down. I don't think I would ever harm myself.

When I'm working in a two person group project and there's no communication. Especially if that person hasn't done their part, emailed me none of their work with a looming deadline a and not having the courtesy to email me that they're working on it. Then I start sending emails like a madman and progressively become more unstable as the due date gets closer.

 

I was in that scenario last week and I started doing his work. All lines were dead and the deadline was in 4 hours. Absolutely no communication on their part...

I've never really had a major nervous breakdown before. I mean, I freak out a little bit when I have to turn an assignment in shortly and it isn't done yet, but that isn't really having a nervous breakdown.

[Judgement 445]

I've always been under so much pressure to do well by my parents, and it nearly makes me cry when I fail my parents' expectations.
