Nervous breakdown:
In the Middle Ages, it was called melancholia. In the early 1900s, it was
known as neurasthenia. From the 1930s to about 1970, it was known as a
nervous breakdown . "Nervous breakdown" is a term that the public uses to
characterize a range of mental illnesses, but generally it describes the
experience of "snapping" under immense pressure, mental collapse or mental
and physical exhaustion.
What is n3rvous br3akdown:
"Nervous breakdown" is an inexact and unscientific term that is no longer
used in psychiatry.
The diagnosis that most closely resembles what the public calls a nervous
breakdown is major depression. Depressive episodes may be caused by genetic
and biological factors and are often triggered by social and environmental
circumstances. Depression is defined as the "loss of interest or pleasure
in nearly all activities" and "sustained fatigue without physical
exertion." Depression is characterized by a lack of energy and motivation
along with feelings of guilt or hopelessness. It is often brought on by
stressful situations, such as relationship difficulties, health problems,
the aftermath of an accident or the death of a loved one.
The mental illness known as a "nervous breakdown" may also be something
like panic attacks, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder or acute
stress disorder
