  • You may have heard of the term ‘mental breakdown’ or ‘nervous breakdown’. You may even have been guilty of using these terms casually. The term is no longer used as a clinical term anymore by the medical community. And, a nervous breakdown is not considered a mental illness. Instead, it is generally viewed as a period of time when an overwhelming amount of stress affects an individual's ability to function. This stress can be physical or mental, and the symptoms of a mental breakdown can subtly sneak up on you and grow out of control if you don’t catch the signs early. So, to help better your mental health, let’s catch the signs early on and see if we can figure out together if you are mentally breaking down.

    I suffered severe mental disorder years ago. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with OCD. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

      100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

      @@francisco_2024 hey man remember things are always changing. It’s ok not to be ok! Those thoughts in your head are just thoughts and they manipulate your mind to stress. I’m not a physician and these are some things I’ve realized along the way. I’ve been dealing with this stuff for 44 years.
      Remember you are not a fortune teller. You cannot predict the future and you cannot change the past but what you can do is live in the moment, and to be honest that’s what everyone has the ability to do. Live in the now. (Look into that). Things do get better. I can tell you this, you will look back on this time in your life and see how you got through it. Everyday is a day forward not backward. Struggles will happen and success will happen but those things don’t define who you are.
      Sooooooo many of us are hurting or struggling and a lot of those people who appear like they aren’t, are!!
      So bottom line, see a doctor if you can, don’t be hard on yourself, give yourself some credit and know you are not alone by a long shot!!! Peace and love always brother.

Teachers are overwhelmed too. Just do your best and don't give up. The best teachers are those who are flexible and understanding of the situation. It is hard on all of us. Best wishes.

    I think this video is pretty much outlining a baseline for a lot of us. We’ve all been through so much over the last several years and it feels like it’s non stop. Any new stressors that happen in our lives are added on top everything else (politics and the pandemic and everything it brought with it) which was A LOT and it has affected all of us in some, mostly traumatic, way. It’s like things that we used to be able to kind of deal with are not so easy anymore and it all adds up quickly so we have to really decide to let go of what we can and allow ourselves to heal and move forward. Just remember, whatever is happening, it’s temporary. We are still who we were yesterday and we will be tomorrow as well. Keep loving yourselves and take it one day at a time or even one hour, one minute, one second at a time. Most of all, know that you are not at all alone.

      Well said. Sometimes I forget to remind myself to live in the now, and get myself feeling so low, and helpless because Fate has been throwing some serious crap at me, and reminding me that I really have little control over my own life. If my brain isn't ruminating about the (fairly recent) past, and what it has manifested, I'm feeling terrible for allowing myself to be going thru everything she mentioned in the video (except too much sleep), which all leads to anxiety about the future.
      One of the many things that happened was I was wrongly fired, and they've lied to make sure not to even let me get unemployment.
      I'm trying to live the cliche's; Trust the process, Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, strength to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.With homelessness looming only weeks away, that little flicker of hope that things will work out...sometime there is no light.

    I know I've commented this on a lot of your videos, but seriously, thank you. No matter how hard life is, hearing your soothing voice and insightful commentary really helps.
    I seem to keep cycling between good and bad: it gets bad, I focus on my mental health, and slowly get out of the hole I'm in. Work stress picks up, and a few months later I realise I'm back in the same hole I just dug out of. Definitely scary going into this video thinking you're going to find symptoms to watch out for, only to realise you've been battling with this heavily over the last few months and it's already too late. Thank you for also making videos on how to improve mental health, your videos are (literally) life saving.

      I'm getting help, but being helped doesn't _help_ that much. It's so hard. I'm so tired of being tired and I'm so tired of fighting. I won't stop but I'm so tired. Exhausted... I wish upon you the best of fortunes and I genuinely hope anything good that can happen to you will happen.
      I wish a reckoning and/or an afterlife would exit, that would suit people like us perfectly. We can only be brave and keep trying to improve the lives of people we care about or who we think deserve it and try forward as good a message as we can to future generations.
      We're but drops in the ocean but the butterfly effect does exist.
      Who are we to wish for solace at the behest of others?
      All I wish for is some peace of mind before I die, I write as a tear runs down my left eye.

      Brain fog; I can't concentrate but can do my job because my normal was above average!
      Lowered inhibitions; I spout off things one might think if slighted instead Of biting my tongue! That combined with aggressiveness which I didn't have before! I think of things someone might do to slight me, get mad, then realize they haven't slighted me in the first place! LoL
      And the worst for last I mumble my thoughts rather than just think them when pissed due to the meds making me aggressive! LoL.
      I've got to walk this minefield for three more years to get my pension! I'll be glad to retire and have peace! I'm not like this when left alone! Anyways hope you feel better soon! I will in three long years! Lol One more thing!
      I've had this constant ringing in my head for three years since I first got sick! That's got something to due with my aggressiveness I think! This is a lot to handle when I've been healthy all my life then bam! Anyway sorry to depress you more! LoL take care!

      That's probably stupid for the most people but I'm so afraid to do failures and I broke down but no one came to check up on me and I overthought everything. Like is it wrong or right to eat sweets,is it wrong or right to cry because of this and all that.
      Some people heard me but didn't do anything and once I had a panic attack in online class and while i tried to breath I wasn't mute and no one tried to help me. Just my only friend in class texted me and tried to help but my math teacher said: "Is someone with you in your home?" "Yeah my mom." "Go to her and let her help you." And I couldn't walk without breaking down and the teacher just normally did his lesson like nothing happens and I felt so worthless and like a burden and this made me feel so worse
      Sry that this is so long-
      I just kinda needed to vent,again sorry

    On Thursday, while in clinical exposure I was experiencing difficulty breathing, i checked my pulse on the pulse oximeter, and it was normal. When it was time for dinner ,I was with my fellow classmates, and we went to a fast food restaurant. I was invited to sit at their table. But it was uncomfortable as I do not feel like it to engage in their discourse as they're having fun. I exited and go to the comfort room, and go in the cubicle. My eyes began to tear and cried. But I was not wailing hahah, then as i stopped, i began to deep breathe for two-three minutes.
    When I got back. What a timing! that my ordered food is finally there via buzzer. I go to get my food and decide to find a new table yet, just near my classmates. When I was near them, I informed my former close friend whose also my classmate, that I will just sit near their table.
    I finally, feel more at ease and comfortable while eating . ❤️

      It is hard for many to get help if they have been burned by an irresponsible mental healthcare professional. I council a few people that have this valid fear that became downgraded to second class citizens, whom lost rights and needed help to get that remedied and the worst case of this was a 3 year journey with the individual, to restore their rights just because of a misunderstanding on the part of a so called professional that wasn’t listening well enough and made assumptions and even breeched well established protocol. Getting help can be dangerous but it shouldn’t. I clean up messes for people that found that out so I know.

    • @Phlowermom
      @Phlowermom 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It can be very difficult to not only say no to requests for help but it can be even harder to make it stick! It has taken me 2 fricking years to break people of the habit of always turning to me for help and assistance!! But once I learned to say not, "no, I can't" but "no, I won't". An important distinction you will find. It was an odd sensation when I realized a few months ago that my phone had become very quiet of late!!
      I enjoy helping others but I found myself ALWAYS helping everyone, from being woken up early to come give somebody a ride to school or work, running full-tilt boogie all damn day and finally getting home to rest for about half an hour and maybe eat something (I am a diabetic) before the phone rings again for the help it seems only I can provide.
      It was very difficult to make others accept my refusals! The guilt trips and the tears, the constant phone calls from angry people wanting to know why? You did it before!! The yelling and the begging were painful to hear and yet, I stuck to my decision to STOP! I had to keep reminding myself that the World will keep turning, the winds will keep blowing and that my refusals ARE NOT THE END OF THE WORLD!! Not for the folks I turned down or for me!!
      And now, I try to remember to stop several times a day to appreciate the quiet of the phone, the time to work on projects that have meaning for me without interruption and finally, finally being able to eat like I should!! Or even take a nap!! (Yes, I'm that old) Just the freedom to structure my life and day as I wish is BLISSFULLY BLISSFUL!! I highly recommend it!!
      It's nice to be needed. It's very nice to not be needed either! Folks have managed to locate alternative sources of help that have absolutely nothing to do with me, my truck or anything else I foolishly consider my private property!!
      An experience I highly recommend to you!!

      Most importantly do not let anyone tell you what is good for you.
      However do not become blind to see opportunity that may help you.
      Always check your sanity.
      I was never able to enjoy my childhood I was alone will be for rest of my life although I will never forget those who helped me but emotionally I am and always be alone in this lonely world .

      I see the same things from the pandemic and quarantines that I used to see on the Ship when I was in the Navy... Over time, everyone gets anxious and excitable. They tend to be more dramatic and drastic in their reactions over less and less as the time goes on. I've often referred to it as "isolation psychosis" because it comes from being "stuck" more or less at sea... or anywhere (really) secluded.
      Someone really SHOULD do some research and psych' work on the subject. There has been PLENTY of context and subject matter to study throughout history. Nautical travels have ALWAYS been regarded as hazardous to one's sanity, and now we've got the majority of the world's population stuck indoors at home, warned away from socializing as much and as fervently as we used to (pre-pandemic), and all the new safety standards and protective gear required... the arguing... the political sh*t-shows ongoing... and so on...
      It somehow seems to be neglected, EVEN with such aspirations as people hoping to colonize Mars in our lifetimes... BUT if we can't face the reality of what seclusion and isolation do to our mental health, and what we can do about it therapeutically, we're not going to like the results of such a colonization campaign, either...
      AND in spite of the best efforts (supposedly) offered from the mental health professionals, there isn't a lot of recognition nor therapeutic advice being offered. At least, they HAVE warned that isolation is one of the worst things you can do to yourself... BUT nobody's offering much of an explanation for it, NOR have they been forthcoming about activities or products to help reduce or resolve it and the related stresses from it...
      I'm glad I had D&D back in the Navy-days... AND I'm glad I had the Navy days to build up a personal tolerance for this kind of situation. In lieu of those, however, I CAN offer a small bit of advice. FIND A HOBBY that you can pursue. It doesn't matter what it is, or how you find it enjoyable... It should challenge you just enough to be challenging, so you can find it fun and rewarding when you get better at it and build your skills... It should be reasonably available so you're not breaking the bank to do it regularly... AND whether or not you gain anything particular, you should be able to see your improvements over time as you do it...
      Sure. Video Games can be a fine hobby. If that's your thing, it's good to build eye-hand coordination, learn the plethora of controls and formats, enjoy unlocking secrets or building stories or whatever that the games give and create...
      I would also casually advise you find more than one hobby to pursue. There's almost no limit to the amount of skills you can build and hobbies you can find interest in one way or another. Sometimes, even the most fun activities get old or boring... or you just get tired of them a while... It helps to still have something (anything) you can take up and enjoy doing for whatever reason you enjoy it.
      A bored mind is often going to create things to stimulate itself... Left to its own devices, uncontrolled, it will tend toward creating things to disturb rather than enjoy. Harnessing that creative energy, a hobby can direct the bored mind to engage in something less self-destructive than disturbing nightmare fuel... At least, that seems to work from my casual observation and experience. ;o)

I can say I have been singing a lot more as I do my chores and studying, and it calms me down about 90 percent of the time, so I can definitely see what you mean about finding hobbies.
