Causing madness or extreme frustration; infuriatingly maddening.
From 'be-' + 'madden' + '-ing' (present participle). The '-ing' form captures ongoing or continuous action that drives someone toward madness.
Bemaddening describes that special kind of frustration where something gets progressively more annoying the more you deal with it—like a bug you can't quite swat or a song stuck in your head. The progression of irritation is built into the word itself.
