Breakdown

Do people really get nervous breakdown due to the unbearable level of stress and mental breakdown caused by the ceaseless problems that hit you like there is no tomorrow? The answer is yes. I was pretty skeptical about it but yes after experiencing it once, i couldn't believe more!

What would one normally do when they are struck by so called the mental breakdown? and what are the symptoms of it?

Firstly, an emotional self would reveal inevitably. Less words, less mingle around, less social activity, always seem to be drowning in your own thoughts/world. You can call that depression but they are totally different, at least you are not suicidal and you tend to take it out.

so what did i do? Yeh, i am not ashamed to say that i cried, like a baby indeed, when i was on the phone with Sherene. Everything could have easily triggered the tears gland and started to well up and then streaming down. It happened just within a split second and i was shocked at what i was doing. Trying to hold back and tried to introspect but what the hell can't i just be irrational for minutes??? so i reckoned it'd be better off to just let it be. After 10 minutes, yeah not long, i ceased, and talked to Sherene for the next 5 mins but still sobbing all the way.

Asked for the reasons, i could only say there have been too many things going around and haunting me like a flies buzzing you all the time. and yeah i lost control, for once, and couldn't handle myself well enough to resolve everything. All in all, i realised that i am just a normal human being, a normal guy.

When would you let down your guard and just be yourself exposing your inner self and tell the whole world how at times you can get so weak inside? It's always easy for girls, but there is always a great wall to cross over in order for a guy to get to that point, and i would reckon it's rather a mountain than a wall for some guys.

So people, don't suppress your feelings. Even the toughest guy on earth need a break to be able to be persistent in the long run. :) but then, you can't always be depressed or unhappy. a day or two is fine, but if it lasts for a month, better consult a pyschiatrist because i think a psychologist can no longer help you and let alone you yourself. It's always different when it comes to the level of EQ that decide your capability of handling everything. :)
