Match-Pump Approach

Hypocrisy or a hypocritical way of doing things. You cause some bad problems to occur, while making sure that nobody knows that you are the cause of them, and then come up solutions to them so that you will be seen as as a saviour by all around you, as if you set fire on something with a match yourself and pumped water onto it as a hero citizen, pretending that you happen to be there.
"I suspect it was John who made the car tyre flat, just before our driving trip last week. He did that probably so that he could come to the rescue in his car and impress all the girls like a hero. What a match-pump approach that was!"

L'appel du vide

"L'appel du vide" is when you have self-destructive thoughts for a split second - like swerving your car into oncoming traffic or imagining yourself jumping when you're standing at the edge of a cliff even though you'd never really do it. The phrase literally translates as "The call of the void"

fall apart

1 - If something falls apart, it breaks into pieces because it is old or badly made.

2 - If an organization or system falls apart, it becomes disorganized or unable to work effectively, or breaks up into its different parts.

3 - If you say that someone is falling apart, you mean that they are becoming emotionally disturbed and are unable to think calmly or to deal with the difficult or unpleasant situation that they are in.
Ex1: "The work was never finished and bit by bit the building fell apart."
Ex2: "I guess it was like that for you when your company started to fall apart."
Ex3: "I was falling apart. I wasn't getting any sleep."
