Yes, it's used in the United States. It's used for a whole range of meanings: the straightforward literal meaning, or various figurative meanings. Steve Jobs of Apple Computer loved to use the phrase "insanely great." "Dave's Insanity Sauce" is a hot sauce made in California that gets its name because it is extremely hot. (It has been measured at 180,000 Scoville units compared to 2,500-5,000 for Tabasco). A current U.S. song lyric contains the lines: "You know you like it but it drives you insane; You know you like it but it drives you insane; You know you like it but you're scared of the shame-- What you want, what you gonna do?..."
