I don't know of a singularly fool-proof consistent system. What I do know is this:
1. You're not dead.
2. Fundamentally, you had that breakdown because you are human.
3. The breakdown transpired due to stress.
4. Of that stress, which of what external, and which of it was internal. Of the internal stuff, was any of it based on irrational assumptions?
Regardless. . . I'd stick with ideas #1 and #2 for AT LEAST the next week. Meditate on them.

I'm skipping to part 4, since I know the vast majority of it IS irrational. Although that's immaterial when I can't see straight.
