Answer:

Hamlet and Ophelia both display symptoms of madness, but each become mad for different reasons. Hamlet's madness is fueled by his father's death and his desire to seek revenge on the man who killed him. Ophelia's madness stems from her lack of identity and her feelings of helplessness regarding her own life.
