A mental breakdown is when you have a kind of anxiety attack. For example, you only hear bad things about going to high school, and now you are scared to graduate middle school. When you end up crying in your bed just thinking of the bad things about going to high school, your having a mental breakdown. A mental Breakdown could also mean when you are having a sudden hit of reality. Or the scary truth to something. An example to that could be that you never realized your friend/ family member were/ was using you for bad reasons and now that you know you don’t know what to do. That’s also having a mental breakdown. A mental breakdown means when one is going through an intense mental distress
