Nervous Breakdown

Workplace stress is a common problem that affects many people in many different ways, and it can result from various factors such as a high workload, tight deadlines, lack of support, poor communication, conflict with colleagues or managers, or even lack of support from managers. While some stress can be motivating and beneficial, too much stress can have negative consequences on both your physical and your mental health. We all know that a nervous breakdown is sometimes also called a mental breakdown and it's a term that's used to describe an intense period of mental or emotional distress that leaves you unable to function effectively in everyday life. Although it's not a clinical term or a specific mental health diagnosis it often describes a situation in which an individual experiences overwhelming stress, anxiety, or depression and this prevents them from properly managing their daily responsibilities. Work-related stress can significantly contribute to the risk of having a nervous breakdown, high demands, long hours, unrealistic expectations, job security, and a lack of support from colleagues or managers, this can all lead to chronic stress. When this stress accumulates over time, it can exhaust a person's emotional and physical resources and increase the likelihood of a nervous breakdown. Recognising the signs is essential for early intervention and for recovery, some common indicators would be, persistent feelings of being completely overwhelmed, feeling completely helpless, feelings of despair as well as feelings of anxiety, panic, and irritability. You get mood swings when you're on the road to a nervous breakdown. The cognitive symptoms would be things like difficulty concentrating, racing thoughts, constant worry about work, and coping with your workload. These can all be warning signs and alongside these emotional and cognitive signs are physical symptoms that go along with it, such as feeling tired all the time, not sleeping properly, loss of appetite, heart palpitations and even bursting into tears for absolutely no reason.

In 1967 my Dad had a Nervous Breakdown when I was 4 years in The UK and my mum was trying to calm him down and then come me and I had a nervous breakdown when I was 8 years old cause I was nearly died when my big sister trying to kill me in 1971 and I try to explain it to my mum but she took no notice of me and I end up in Bexley Heath Hospital. When growing up in the UK I keep seeing my big sister in my vision 24/7 and I keep getting flashbacks of what she done to me.. In 1983 my older sister suffered a mighty nervous breakdown right through till she passed away when she suffered a Big Stroke. It still lingers in me so I should do a TV Documentry about my life and why it happen to me....😦😧😨😡😠🤬
