Signs you're mentally breaking down.
Always tired? Difficulty concentrating? Sleeping too little or too much?
This could be signs of a mental breakdown.
Mental breakdown happens when an overwhelming amount of stress affects your performance.
Here are some signs.
Too much or too little sleep
Insomnia or too much sleep is a sign of mental breakdown.
A solution is working out more often or reading a (physical) book before bed.
The less simulation the better. Because the goal is to calm your brain.
Brain Fog
If you've been feeling disoriented. Struggle with remembering things. And have found it difficult to concentrate recently. It is a sign of a mental breakdown.
Personal hygiene
Neglecting your personal hygiene?
You may feel like you just don't have the energy to do anything. But this could be a sign of depression and even worse, a mental breakdown.
Social withdrawal
Have you been canceling plans with everyone? This is another bad sign.
We need socialization, and when we don't have this, it affects us mentally.
Difficulty breathing
Tightness in your chest or rapid breathing is a sign of stress, which could lead to a mental breakdown if you let it.
Frequent head and stomach ache
Physical pain is your body showing you that something is wrong.
You suddenly eat too much or too little
Change in appetite can be a sign of stress too. Cortisol (the stress hormone) can make you crave foods high in fat and sugar.
A solution to this is to eat whole foods.
Mental health problems will hit disturbing rates in the coming years because more people prioritize work and trivialize rest.
But the balance is key to wellness.
Here are some quick solutions
- Lift weights
- Reduce screen time before bed.
- Talk to people in person.
- Get sunlight
- Drink more water
- Eat whole foods
- Read a physical book before bed
- Take some time off your stressors.
