It might, perhaps, be interesting to note that 'MAD' also refers to
Mixed Anxiety and Depression (Abnormal Psychology, Ronald J. Comer).
This double (well, triple really) meaning seems somehow appropriate.

There's also the classic 'SAD' for Seasonal Affective Disorder.

IMO there should be a 'FAD' - Fashion Addiction Disorder.

If anyone can find a description for antisocial personality disorder
which gives the acronym 'BAD', please send the suggestion to the
American Psychiatric Association ;-)
