What are the signs of a mental breakdown?

For me when instsrt emotionally shutting down, I might start expressing my depression or my thoughts get darker. If it balances out, I'll go back to normal in a day or two. But if not, it gets worse and worse until I'm deciding if I want to exit the game of life

Having paranoia, fake scenarios, anxiety attacks and panic for no reason.

Uncontrollable stress, not being able to deal with normal everyday, feeling trapped, feeling like you are running out of time, dying for something to make your thoughts stop, needing something but not knowing what, perhaps wanting to kill yourself. Yeah I went through this. Had to be forced to get help but I am totally a different person now and it's good.

• The sense of having no direction.
• Helplessness.
• Desperate.
• Seeing no options that are at least a bit comforting.
• Constant repetitive failure.
• Severe anxiety.
• Blood pressure major fluctuations.
• Not enough sleep.
• Perceived perception about a certain thing is very painful.
• Peer pressure is one of the motivators in this.

I had two mental breakdowns when I was preparing for IIT-JEE in my 11th and 12th.

Paranoid thoughts. Jumping to conclusions. Black-and-white thinking. Magical thinking. Catastrophizing. Discounting the positive things about yourself.

After reading your last post just now, I think it's emotional abuse. You are suffering from trauma, and you are compartmentalizing your past trauma with positive thoughts.

You definitely are a very strong person not to let your trauma show. But should seek out therapy if you can afford it.

I am very impressed with how you keep it together. You have my admiration. I wish you the best of luck.

I'm barely keeping ot together but thank you!

[Opinion Owner]

I am sorry to hear that. I think you have a lot of inner strength. You will get through this. Don't give up.

You are intelligent and emotional, which makes you authentic and interesting, your emotional core.

Just try to focus on the positives.

[artsy_dragon]

Interesting point of view and thanks! Do I know you haha

[Opinion Owner]

No, but I saw your post on my questions a few times. You gave good answers.

You can try yoga to help you relax. That's what I do. You want to keep your mind in the here and now, so focusing on your body movements really helps keep your mind from wandering.

Or you can use a stress ball to help keep your mind in the present.

[artsy_dragon]

Will try that

Simple things become too difficult to them. They get easily frustrated.

When you even don't like yourself...
