What is the difference between a nervous breakdown and a brief reactive psychosis?


Question:


Answers:
Difficult to comment without preceding factors to determine cause. Recreational drug use, constant stressors etc can each be a factor and underpin how you will react, and therefore determine which it is.

there is no difference
If you have a nervous breakdown, you will know it, and you will need professional help to recover.

It is possible to have near nervous breakdowns, but recovery is swift. But they are a warning that you need to change something.
Perhaps the "breakdown" may be a little more severe. If you are suffering because of someone else's negligence. Then you may want to document your emotional distress. You can do this by going to a hospital that offers services to help people who are mental. Like a "Psych Ward." Go there even if you already had a nervous breakdown. Tell them what's stressing you out. They should start a file on you, give you some good advice, and point you in the right direction with a "follow up" or something.

Good luck.
Nervous breakdown is a more general or layman's term but brief reactive psychosis is a medical term.
No difference
