manically
In frenzied fashion
Manically describes doing something in a frenzied, wildly energetic, or obsessive way.
It derives from manic, suggesting behavior that is intense, unrestrained, and possibly out of control.
Someone might manically clean the house before guests arrive or laugh manically at their own joke.
The word can describe genuine psychological states associated with mania, but more often it simply conveys extreme enthusiasm or agitation.
