You've never heard of a mad scientist? You know "Mwahaahahaaa..." and all that.
I'm surprised, it's a total cultural meme.
Probably dates back to Newton and those other alchemists who were really fascinated by the, um, transformative properties of mercury.

I used to take a medicine which I thought was fine; in the mean time, I developed worse and worse depression, anxiety, and all the time I thought it was a reasonable reaction to stuff in my life. THEN I got paranoid and thought my best friend and boyfriend were out to get me. Finally, something snapped. Finally, I thought, "whoa, this is not me." Turns out it was ALL the medicine. Yes, I had reasons to be depressed, but that's just not my type. Ended the medicine, ended all the side effects. It only took 3 years and a CRAZY extent of the side effects for me to realize it "wasn't me."
