Nervous breakdown
When a woman in a rage stomping her feet and beating plates, they say that she has a nervous breakdown. In the medical reference books there is no such diagnosis. This is a symptom of an acute nervous disorder characterized by a temporary loss of behavioral control.

The habitual balance of hormonal substances that have been abruptly consumed, keeping the nervous system at rest, has been broken. A further stable reaction was not enough hormones. Sizzled and boiled in the nerve cells.
