Is Post Traumatic Stress what we used to call NERVOUS BREAKDOWN?

  After a debilitating 23 month custody battle/divorce (10+ years ago) wherein I lost my children, wife and 2 businesses...at age 34, I believed I was to experience my first adolescence (having been married at 17) and started dating 17-19 year old women, got involved in metaphysics and believed I could walk through walls (if only I was "a little clearer"). I even believed, at one point, I was experiencing my "previous" life as Jesus Christ.
  During this period of time, I had a single incidence of sexual contact with my (then) 16 year old daughter...which I became suicidally remorseful of, assumed responsibility for, and appologized to the best of my (then rambling) ability.
  I have since been abandonded (perhaps rightfully) by all family. No contact by any parent, 3 brothers or 2 sisters or (2) children in almost 11 years.
  Is there such a thing as a "nervous breakdown" that would account for such a terrible action on my part...or am I just evil?

Dear Mr Johnson,
You describe a number of symptoms - believing you have special powers, rambling thoughts, and inappropriate sexual activity. These symptoms could be due to a number of psychiatric disorders, especially Bipolar Disorder(Manic Depression), alcohol or drug abuse, Major Depression, or Schizophrenia. Sressful situations may prompt the onset of psychiatric illness in some individuals, or what you refer to as "nervous breakdown"
