In psychological terms, frenzy can be described as a temporary mental disturbance or mania, often induced by external factors such as stress, fear, or strong emotions. It is characterized by a rapid and excessive increase in activity, often leading to erratic or impulsive behavior patterns. During a frenzy, individuals may experience heightened physical and mental energy, but lack the ability to focus or make sound judgments.
The manifestations of frenzy can vary greatly from person to person. It may include symptoms such as restlessness, wild gestures, accelerated speech, or intense emotional outbursts. Frenzy can also be associated with a sense of loss of control, with individuals feeling as if they are driven by an overwhelming force or compulsion.
The term "frenzy" can be used in various contexts, such as describing a crowd in a state of frenzy, a person caught in a frenzy of passion or anger, or a market experiencing a buying frenzy. It signifies a state of heightened activity and agitation, often with a lack of rationality or self-control.

Etymology of FRENZY
The word "frenzy" originated from the Middle English term "frenesie", which was derived from Old French "frenesie". It can be traced back to the Latin word "phrenesis", meaning "mental disorder" or "delirium". Latin borrowed this term from ancient Greek, where it was called "phrḗn" (φρήν) meaning "mind" or "heart". Over time, the meaning transitioned from a specific medical condition to the more general notion of extreme excitement, agitation, or uncontrolled behavior that we associate with "frenzy" today.
