In the end, the Ring was taken from Frodo by force. I don't entirely believe that it broke his mind, but that may have something to do with his changed life afterwards.

I suspect the 'force' Gandalf was referring to would be mental or 'magical' force- psychological domination of a sort which prob. would cause permanent damage.
