Then at the end of last night's episode, to see him on his knees, broken and devastated as they start firing away at his loved ones. It looked like he was about to have a complete breakdown.

It started when Shane put three in the chest of that woman zombie Herschel knew. He had a total WTF look on his face. And, it probably started a bit before that when Maggie told him how Glen had saved her from a walker in town.
Herschel, in his own way, had come to grips with what was happening to him and his world, and had found a way to deal with it while feeling like he was still in control. In the span of about 90 seconds, all of that went up in flames.
