Having a psychotic break is one facet of mental illness but it's not universal to all people who struggle with being non-neurotypical. And it's almost always possible to call upon a more extreme and more harrowing example to overtop another, but it's not worth it. What is served by diminishing the suffering and struggle of others? What is served by trying to sort hardship on a scale? It's not a competition or a race. There's no advantage to trying to prevent wider acceptance of the commonality of mental illness nor to trying to block compassion towards others who are just trying to figure out how to live their lives.
