Merriam-Webster Dictionary: Insanity is defined as a severely disordered state of the mind usually occurring as a specific disorder. It also refers to law, specifically as a state of being mentally ill so severely that one cannot be held responsible for one's actions.

Oxford English Dictionary (OED): The OED describes insanity as the state of being seriously mentally ill; madness. It also notes its use in legal contexts to denote a degree of mental illness that relieves the sufferer of legal responsibility for their actions.

Cambridge Dictionary: This dictionary defines insanity as the condition of being seriously mentally ill; madness. It also mentions its use in informal situations to describe actions that are very foolish or unreasonable.

Collins English Dictionary: Insanity is defined as relatively permanent disorder of the mind; state or condition of being insane. It emphasizes on a legal definition as well, indicating a condition of such mental illness that a person cannot be held responsible for their actions.

American Heritage Dictionary: Defines insanity as a severe mental disorder, with or without organic damage, characterized by derangement of personality and loss of contact with reality and causing deterioration of normal social functioning.

You can define it any way you want but you can hang here and see it up close and personal.
