What do you think causes meltdowns?

Is it a consistent lack of being heard?

In my case it is usually a spectacular failure of the universe to realign itself to suit my needs.

My guess would be that they're caused by feeling overwhelmed.

Too much overstimulation that builds up stress that melts down when it can lo longer be tolerated.

When your internal RAM is overloaded and is potentially overheating.

Numerous things to get out of dysregulation, quantified based overwhelm, too many unfinished crap without a chance to process it well.

Too many tabs, too many pop ups, too many ads, too many notifications, too fast, too slow, too tangled up, too disorganized.

It can be that one big unexpected thing on top of supposedly basic simple things, it could be many waves of accumulative pile up.

And, predictably, two things can happen -- you either freeze like shutdown or explode and meltdown.

Some would try and work it out, overclock themselves into burning out.

Overstimulation and lack of control or agency; just getting poked and prodded by the most minor of stimuli eats away at you. I find a quiet, dark place to unplug and clear my mind, and that is working so far.

Pervasive Stress ..... maybe extra neurofibre bundles firing non stop all at once ...a Too Much ( Input)Info situation for the brain ?

Over-stimulation in addition to:

-Having to contend and deal with disappointments and failures

I just had one today because I want to get married and start producing kids RIGHT NOW but have to wait 2 more years!! !

I'm on vacation, Im on vacation from my group home. To me being at the group home & the people that works there, it is tooooo exhausting.

Frustration and sensory overload.

When something minor will not be the way it should be.

For me it's usually triggered by being overstimulated, and also being misunderstood/not heard can do it.

People and their unrealistic expectations.

improper nutrition , and higher than normal fatigue level...imho
