Breaking down can be described as "decomposing". Something that can break something down or decompose something is catabolic. Often used in science, catabolic means that a formula or chemical is breaking down another. Your stomach acid digesting food is an act of being catabolic.

It can also be called a psychotic break if referring to a person.

Synonyms for breaking down can include "spell out", "shed light on", "make plain", elucidate, simplify, "make clear", interpret, illuminate, delineate, class, codify.
