I am familair with this one because my wife experienced this just last year but I don't even know how or why it happened. A nervouse breakdown is caused by an intense, continuous amount of stress an individual undergoes. Whatever type of stress it is, it is triggered to the brain as unsurmountable thereby unable to be handled causing a collapse or 'breakdown' in the nervous sytem of the mind. Individuals who have suffered from nervouse breakdowns sometimes appear to be disabled because they behave like those of whom are mentally impaired.
