Detailed explanation-1: -Hamlet tells his mother that he is not mad, “but mad in craft” [Act III, Scene iv, lines 188-199]. Hamlet believes in his sanity at all times. He never doubts his control over psyche.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hamlet tells Horatio that he plans to feign madness before the King and the court. The madness will render him invisible so that he might observe and discern the best way and time for his revenge.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hamlet tells his friends they are welcome to stay at Elsinore, but that his “uncle-father and aunt-mother” are deceived in his madness. He is mad only some of the time and at other times is sane.
Detailed explanation-4: -(I.v.) When the Ghost tells Hamlet about Claudius’s murder, Hamlet responds strangely: he tells his friend Horatio and the watchman Marcellus that he is going to pretend to be mad.
