Similar films (protagonist who slowly loses it)?


Does anyone have any other films they can think of that are in the same vein, taking the same formula (a protagonist starts of doing somewhat well, then degrades over the course of the film, and has a breakdown of sorts at the end)?

I have 2011's "Shame," but that's the only one I can really think of. Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
