Writer producer Dean Devlin is in this movie in a small part, and I could be mistaken, but that freaking out kid looks a bit like him ...

That is the most relevant movie scene I've ever seen. That has happened to me at least three times. Twice in College.

WITHNAIL AND I is basically one long meltdown. A sample:

Withnail: I've some extremely distressing news.

Marwood: I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear anything! Oh God, it's a nightmare, I tell you, it's a nightmare.

Withnail: We just ran out of wine. What are we gonna do about it?

Marwood: I don't know, I don't know. Oh God, I don't feel good. Look, my thumbs have gone weird! I'm in the middle of a bloody overdose. Oh God. My heart's beating like a fucked clock! I feel dreadful, I feel really dreadful!

Withnail: So do I, so does everybody. Look at my tongue; it's wearing a yellow sock. Sit down for Christ's sake, what's the matter with you? Eat some sugar.

@martinb: Ah, Withnail and I, one of my all-time favorite movies. I've featured it in Great Scenes here. I'll definitely use it for Daily Dialogue for character meltdowns!
