Your case is really not what I would call "most mental breakdowns" and it's unfair to belittle someone else's issues because they don't match up to yours. Mental issues are an everyday reality for millions of people, and by their very nature might mean the world to those suffering from it while seeming insignificant to everyone else.
You don't need to emphasize the severity your own experience, feeling shit is not a competition.
