Felt mad (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

touched

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'felt' is the first definition.
(touching is a kind of feeling)

'mad' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for touched that I've seen before include "Made contact" , "Contacted; slightly mad" , "Felt" , "Made to feel sympathy - or slightly mad?" , "Moved sympathetically - mad!" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
