I don't think Nick is 'mentally unstable'... He's likely sleep-deprived, for one thing. He went from staying up all night worrying about Juliette, to being a new father...anyone who is a parent knows that you don't get much sleep for the first few months. Then there is all the stress...he never gets a break from that. Nick has a stressful job, and then there is all the personal stuff; Now he's worrying about Trubel and worrying about the safety of Adalind and baby Kelly. With all that has been heaped on him, I think Nick is handling it all rather well. Since Grimms have that ability to get stronger from the traumatic things that they survive...it would appear that Nick's ability to handle stress is one of those things too, because his capacity for dealing with massive amounts of stress seems to increase as the stress level increases. This is one of the reasons why I think Meisner could be a Grimm...he's always such a cool-headed character, as though he has had to deal with a lot.
