The speaking to her parents "in tears" is definitely an indicator of major stress but it would also mean that their were other areas of her life that were contributing to that stress. Not just the thesis. The thesis would have been the tip over the edge point but not THE point.

I think you could be right about this. Jim had already expressed his general approval of, and even enthusiasm for, her paper. Suzanne's extreme anxiety about it seems exaggerated. I'd been thinking earlier, half-joking: maybe it was PMS. But perhaps there was something far more serious that worried her, something she felt she couldn't tell anyone about. And so she transferred her anxiety and frustration to the question of the thesis and Jim's handling of it.
