Mental breakdown? I don't remember hearing about that.

I thought the reason the last book took so long was because of all the
distractions and outside demands on her time; book signings, personal
appearances, interviews, promotional tours, movie premiers, charity
benefits, fame, plus the changes in her personal life (although, I'm
amazed she has time for a personal life) like her marriage and new
born child.

I suspect now that things are somwhat back to normal, she should be
able to spend more time writing. I know in a couple of interviews she
said she already had a good start on book 6, so I'm agreeing with
everyone else; new book in a year to a year and a half.

...or at least, that's what I'm hoping for.

just a thought.
