"To be or Not to Be" Crazy-Hamlet Act 4

As the play progresses we start to loose the line between Hamlets play acting and actual madness. We start to see some actions that actually show forced and acted madness. But in other situations, Hamlet says and does things that lead us to question whether he is still acting. Some people we can see that Hamlet is really play acting. When he talks to Polonius we can see right away that nothing he says really makes sense and it feels very forced. However it feels the opposite when we see him talking to Ophelia. Nothing he does or says makes sense and the things he does seem out of his character from the first three acts. We start to see a real conflict within his character especially in this act. We see him want to keep being crazy to follow out with the plan, but we see him start to loose it to desperation. I think Hamlet is starting to get mixed up in too many emotions. His want for revenge for his father, his love for Ophelia, his need to act, and his want to keep his family together. Between finding a way to kill his uncle and avenge his father and keeping his relationships alive, Hamlet is stuck between acting and real life.
