Nervous Breakdown

I have noticed that when nearly unmanageable events occur in my life it results in a nervous breakdown. Let me specify my nearly unmanageable event. My roof is leaking. I'm pretty sure I need a new roof. I am currently awaiting an estimate. I don't have money for a new roof. My car will be paid off in five months and I really don't want to go into debt again. I was really excited about having the extra money after the car was paid off. Not now. I'm sure I will have to go into debt over this. Crap. That is not the point.
The point is I'm supposed to be describing my nervous breakdown. As contradictory as it sounds as was fully aware during my breakdown. Truly, my nervous system was offline and kept trying to start back up.
My thoughts were so disorganized that I could not keep names, items, etc straight. My reflects and balance were off. I was dropping and spilling all over the place. My emotions were inconsistent. I was happy then sad then angry then indifferent. I would forget basic words. A true nervous break down. I'm sure this whole roof thing will work itself out, but I was a mess last night. Today is much better. I also appreciated being told that I was not my normal cheery self. That means that at work I'm normally pleasant and entertaining. Another good point is that I was able to make money last night in spite of my nervous breakdown.
