Russell Lehmann, an award-winning motivational speaker who struggles with autism, OCD, depression and anxiety, encountered an American Airlines representative that responded to the biggest breakdown of his life in the middle of Reno-Tahoe International Airport.
Lehmann had found out his flight was delayed, which caused him to miss his connection for the second time in two days. He notes, "I succumbed to the worst meltdown of my life.
