Could you give some examples of the different figurative meanings? Dictionaries are not very prolific on this one.
BTW, I don't think prolific works well in the preceding sentence. What would you replace it with?
Two questions in one ;-)

Come undone is to lose self-control, get disorganized, fall into pieces
When she looks at me, I come undone. (= I am speechless, don't know what to say or how to say it....she makes me fall into pieces)
When my brother and sister start fighting I come undone and feel like strangling both of them! (= I lose self control, it drives me nuts).
I don't know of other meanings for "come undone". :lol: :lol:
