Prichard, ‘Winged Seeds’, ch. II) — Глаза так и горят, так и бегают по сторонам - мы уж думали, он совсем спятил.
A hundred times he had heard the old man spoken of as a little off his head... (Sh. Anderson, ‘Winesburg, Ohio’, ‘Loneliness’) — Сто раз доводилось ему слышать о старике, что, мол, у него не все дома...
In the morning when Andrew Masters came to see how he felt, Pledger was half out of his head. (A. Saxton, ‘The Great Midland’, ‘The First War’, ‘1919’) — Утром Эндрю Мастерс, пришедший справиться о здоровье Пледжера, нашел его в бреду.

7 off the rails
...I have a heart-sinking impression that Georgina is going off the rails again. Her last letter was full of somebody called Martin - very flippant allusions, but persistent. Poor Clem! He does live a knife-edgy life, and she treats him abominably. (P. H. Johnson, ‘The Survival of the Fittest’, part III, ch. I) —...хотя мне тяжело говорить об этом, но у меня создается впечатление, что Джорджина опять сбилась с пути истинного. В ее последнем письме только и говорится о каком-то Мартине. Причем весьма легкомысленно. Бедный Клем! Живет как на краю пропасти. Джорджина безобразно к нему относится.
They were not what they were, especially up Gottingham Park way, which was getting such a notorious name, because it was a respectable neighbourhood gone a bit off the rails... (M. Dickens, ‘The Heart of London’, part II) — Улицы, особенно около Готтингемского парка, пользуются дурной славой. Этот некогда респектабельный район сейчас сошел со стези добродетели.
2) выбитый из колеи; дезорганизованныйAt the arrival of a general election England therefore may be considered as "off the rails". (OED) — Начинаются всеобщие выборы, и можно считать, что Англия "выбита из колеи".
3) разг. не в своём уме, не все домаHe was always a highly-strung fellow, and ever since the war when he got shell-shock, he has been quite off the rails, poor chap. (SPI) — У него и раньше нервы никуда не годились, а после контузии на войне он, бедняга, стал совсем не в себе.
