Description Free feel to fave this if you have witnesses someone mistaking a meltdown for a tantrum. Remember Britian's Got Talent 2009? Well, some assholes on YouTube just had to think that Hollie Steel's meltdown when she forgot some of the lyrics during her performance was just attention seeking. That was clearly not a tantrum! That was panicking from a slip up. The video below states that she was having a tantrum. Bullshit.

YES! Meltdowns are mainly a cause from overstimulation or extreme emotion. A tantrum is only for attention. As I have aspergers and have occasional meltdowns from noises, I agree with this COMPLETELY. Thank you~

Mental breakdowns aren't the same as having a tantrum either.

I hate it when people do this to us who experince melt downs or other things like it. A police officer told me I wasn't ticcing. I was just throwing a tantrum. Over a tic attack I was having because some ass hole tried to frame me for hurting thier car. People like that can fuck right off. It pisses me off so much.

Wow, seriously? Having a panic attack is NOT throwing a fit! It means your extremely nervous about something you have no control over. Can't people
understand that?
