Matching the Noun
Since this is an adjective, the ending must change to match what you are describing: 'enloquecido' (man), 'enloquecida' (woman), 'enloquecidos' (men/mixed group), or 'enloquecidas' (women).
Use with 'Estar'
When describing someone's current state of being frantic or wild, use the verb 'estar' (to be) rather than 'ser'.
Confusing with 'Loco'
Mistake: “Using 'enloquecido' for a fun, silly situation.”
Correction: Use 'loco' for 'crazy' in a general sense. 'Enloquecido' implies a much more intense, frantic, or even tragic loss of control.
