maddened

Pushed past patience

Maddened means driven to madness or extreme anger.

Something that maddens you pushes you past frustration toward fury or irrationality: maddened by the constant delays, a maddened bull charging the fence.

The word suggests being pushed beyond one's limits rather than merely annoyed.
