Mission Connection (866-752-9183) has released a mental health guide exploring causes and possible treatment options for nervous breakdowns, focusing on resources intended specifically for women.

-- The latest guide explores hormonal triggers, caregiving stress, trauma, and other factors that can lead to heightened stress levels and may potentially trigger nervous breakdowns in women. By focusing on the unique challenges that women face in daily life, Mission Connection aims to highlight prevention strategies and pathways to professional care during mental health crises.

A nervous breakdown describes a full-body collapse under prolonged psychological strain that leaves individuals unable to function in daily life. While not a clinical diagnosis, the term describes intense periods of mental and emotional distress. Like other mental health issues, the phenomenon affects women disproportionately.
Women face interconnected stressors that heighten vulnerability to breakdowns, including hormonal fluctuations tied to menstrual cycles, pregnancy, and menopause, which significantly impact emotional regulation. Caregiving responsibilities, societal expectations around perfectionism, unresolved trauma, and financial strain may exacerbate the stress caused by these biological factors, creating a psychological environment that increases the risk of nervous breakdowns. Despite the prevalence of these challenges, only half of women experiencing extreme stress and other related mental health issues receive treatment, according to data from the National Institute of Mental Health.
However, Mission Connection stresses the importance of managing mental health challenges, as nervous breakdowns can have lasting impacts on a woman’s life. In the period following a mental breakdown, individuals may experience either emotional blunting or heightened sensitivity to minor stressors; they may also experience cognitive impairment, which is caused by a disruption of the prefrontal cortex by prolonged elevated cortisol levels, and sleeping disorders, which may result from circadian rhythm dysregulation. Decreased productivity, absenteeism, social withdrawal, and maladaptive coping behaviors are also common after a nervous breakdown, potentially compounding existing stressors.
Women who notice symptoms such as extreme mood swings, persistent fatigue, sudden appetite changes, uncontrollable panic episodes, frequent dissociation, or racing thoughts may be on track to experiencing a nervous breakdown. Nevertheless, Mission Connection says that it’s possible to prevent a mental health crisis by proactively managing chronic stress, enforcing healthy boundaries, and practicing good sleep hygiene. Some healthy coping mechanisms include deep breathing and mindfulness; if these fail, professional mental health services are a viable option, especially for women with unresolved trauma.
