The country is rapidly approaching March Madness, an annual celebration of rabid sports fandom and hallowed college tradition. Every year, NCAA fans follow their alma mater or college they'd go to if grades and criminal records didn't matter from hope and glory to everlasting victory or crushing defeat.

Of course, any diehard fan can take their love for their team too far and since the NCAA tournament allows even the little guy to become big winners, the potential for fans losing what’s left of their sanity is pretty high. If you think someone you know might be suffering from March Madness, read one of the telltale signs below and then seek professional help for them immediately.

2. You’re not allowed within 1,000 yards of Anthony Davis’ jock strap.

3. You’re rooting for Duke.

4. You took your son out of Princeton and enrolled him in Long Island U just so you’d have a team to root for this year.
