This to me is normal, for somebody who has endured a lost, of someone dear to her or him, as was his dad. Through his representation of Hamlet's individual aspect, Shakespeare conveys the idea that a damage in someone's life can result in insanity.
"She hitched. O, most wicked velocity dexterity to incestuous sheets"(I. ii. 162-163). Along with the fatality of his daddy, comes his mother's, Gertrude, second relationship.
