lose your mind
Become mentally unhinged
To lose your mind is to go crazy or become irrational.
The phrase ranges from literal mental breakdown to hyperbolic frustration: I'm going to lose my mind if this printer jams one more time.
It can also express being overwhelmed by emotion—excitement, anger, or infatuation: The crowd lost their minds when she took the stage.
