🇬🇧🇬🇧 English Vocabulary Time!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧

stir-crazy (adjective)



"I've been stuck at home for nearly 100 days now... I'm beginning to go stir-crazy".

"Stir-crazy" can be used when you want to express upset, anger or restlessness because of confinement or if one has been prevented from going somewhere or doing something for a long time.

"I've been in this bed with a broken leg for 6 weeks now and I'm literally going stir-crazy!"

"how have you not gone stir-crazy yet? you literally never leave your room!"

Now it's your turn! Try using "(to be/to go) stir crazy " and I'll correct all your mistakes! :)

    It sounds similar to "сходить с ума" in russian. Я начинаю сходить с ума от этой самоизоляции.

    You are absolutely intelligent, then healthy. You definitely don’t go crazy, that's for sure. Just crazy people say that they are absolutely not crazy🤣 The nervous system is a little tired, lie down, and everything will pass. if that I'm near.😉
