This sounds true to me. In my recent episode my mind clearly broke, very suddenly and terrifyingly too. When I asked my pdoc what was my clinical diagnosis he said that what was happening to me was beyond any simple diagnosis. He would agree my mind had snapped causing chaos and madness. He will have to list a diagnosis but it comforts me that he sees what is happening to me as more than a DSM listing but a major psychological and mental event. As Thom Yorke put it, 'Phew, for a minute there, I lost myself'.
