No. Syd Barrett unfortunately wen't crazy because of the large amounts of drugs he was taking in the late 60's. The band had to let him go due to his lack of songwriting at the time and his extremely unusual behaviors. (He is reported to have stared at a box of corn flakes for three hours straight without saying a word.)

Before his problems though, he was a very happy person that everyone loved and admired.
