You have people out there who actually work their way up towards having a mental breakdown, they know when it's coming.They do it on purpose, just so they can cry wolf when it happens.They LOVE to broadcast their issues, like their life is tumblr, or something.Such a strange, attention seeking, reverse psychological thing to do.And incredibly deceptive.It's not a culture to have mental breakdowns.It's hella narcissistic.
As for me,
If I ever have one, I probably wouldn't recognize it as one. Cause life ISN'T suppose to go your way, that's just an high expectation. Insane hyper controlling, slave driving type of people are most likely to work their way up towards mental breakdowns.It's like they want it, and achieve it at a subconscious level."Play the victim".
"look, I'm doing all of these things to prove a point, someone pay attention to me when I finally have a "mental breakdown"!" They SEE it coming...so stupid.They want someone to acknowledge that they're doing so much, it's so strange.

It depends on what you mean by mental breakdown. Are we talking a psychotic break, or just anxiety? If you had a psychotic break the best you can probably hope for is remission of symptoms with psychotropic medications and development of coping skills through therapeutic intervention. If it is anxiety with no underlining psychosis, the duration and severity of symptoms are largely dependent on yourself; taking responsibility for your emotions, and seeking change. Therapy may help speed up the process if there is a strong willingness to change.

They told me I had a psychosis but I'm not sure that was true but I wasn't alright, I had like a million thoughts rushing in my head, can you still have a breakdown even if you don't hallucinate? Cus psychosis means you hallucinate right?

I don't think I had a psychosis then, but I was not alright, and it has taken time for me to get back to some kind of normalcy. I have medication and stuff too and have had that for some years now.

Racing thoughts could be associated with anxiety, and even depression. There is a possibility it could be symptomatic of Bipolar Affective Disorder; which may or may not also be accompanied by psychosis (delusions, paranoia, auditory/visual hallucinations). You would have exhibit clearly defined manic episodes (insomnia, increased energy, increased irritability, impulsive behavior, excessive spending; are some characteristics) in association with depressive episodes. Adult ADHD can even look like BPAD due to impulsivity, racing thoughts, substance abuse, and increased energy. All these diagnoses are on a continuum as well. To a lesser extent there is BPAD II which has depressive episodes and less severe manic episodes, and cyclothymia, which has hypomanic and dysthymic related symptoms.

I have had paranoia, I know that after seeing a Dr Phil episode where he explained it, and it fits perfectly.
All of that increased energy etc fits as well, don't know about insomnia but defenitely irritability and impuslive behavior.
It's gotten a little better though.

Do you include those who lost it completely as soon as Tobi turned out to be Obito or the ones who went bananas after pairing were finalized? Then list is long and some never recovered since.
