動作亂成一片
這是畫面最直接的一支:動作本身就是失控的樣子,你看得見它在亂動。
r · B2
In a wild way that nothing is controlling: moving fast and hard, with no pattern and no steady direction.
狂亂地
Think of something that has slipped out of anyone's hands. A shop sign thrown about by a storm. A heart before you walk on stage. A feeling so large that the person is carried along by it. Someone shouting with no brake on. Whatever madly is attached to, nobody is steering it any more.
Wiktionary records madly as Middle English madly, madli, medliche, that is mad plus -ly — in a mad manner.
Wiktionary 記錄 madly 來自中古英語的 madly、madli、medliche,等於 mad 加上 -ly,也就是「以像瘋了的方式」。上面的畫面正好從這裡長出來。
Wiktionary (kaikki extract, entry madly/adv): "From Middle English madly, madli, medliche, equivalent to mad + -ly."

感覺強到收不住
把「失控」從身體的動作移到心裡的感覺:亂動的不是東西,是那份感情。

Very much, and in a way the person cannot hold back. It goes with words for strong feeling — in love, jealous, keen, excited — and says the feeling has taken the person over.
瘋狂地
氣到壓不住
這一支走的是 mad 另一個日常意思——生氣。失控的畫面還在,只是這次失控的是脾氣。
r · C1
In an angry way: shouting or acting with anger that the person is not keeping in.
氣沖沖地
