Comment: << review queue entry 30392 - submitted by 'vermillon' >>
the last word (which I didnt find in dics and has 8k on google) seems to be the
name for the person who suffers hysteria : 做一个癔想狂 / 你是癔想狂.
I've noticed cedict has 妄想狂 which is defined as /paranoia/megalomaniac/,
and often used as the name of the disease rather than that of the sufferer...

2010-09-24 20:57:54 [ycandau] honestly, that last word strikes me as badly formed, and maybe mistaken for 妄想狂 (妄想狂 makes sense; 癔想狂 doesn't) - also, your pinyin doesn't correspond

Editor: OK, I think I have solved it. 癔想狂 is a miswrite for 臆想狂 (ten times more common on the web, and makes sense).
the mis-written 癔想狂 *is* used in the sense of, not "hysteric":
我不敢对别人讲,我知道没人会相信,会被别人当做一个癔想狂
Diff:
+ 癔 癔 [yi4] /see 癔病[yi4 bing4]/
+ 癔病 癔病 [yi4 bing4] /hysteria/
# + 癔想狂 癔想狂 [wang4 xiang3 kuang2] /fool/hysteriac/
# Editor:
+ 臆想狂 臆想狂 [yi4 xian3 kuang2] /mythomaniac/
+ 臆想症 臆想症 [yi4 xiang3 zheng4] /mythomany/
