Has the stress of life ever caused you to snap?

Question

Like act and think erratically for like a few months, and really embarrass yourself?

Answer 1

Worse.  I crashed hard and became suicidal and had to be hospitalized.  With meds, and being careful to keep the stress down, I can stay out of the pit and be happy enough.

Some people are thrown into bipolar swings.  That might be what you are describing.  Sometimes you feel down and other times frantically giddy.

Either way, a trip to a good shrink helps.  Don't fall into the pit like I did.  I had to be pulled out.  I was on my way through the bottom.  I nearly went a second time later, but I saw it coming and ran for everything that could do any good.

Answer 2

Oh yeh it seems to be an occupational hazard of life today and becoming fashionable too which is sad.
