The "stuck for 24h"-thiny is part of the raid mechanics and actually an important part, yes it can be used for griefing, or trying to kill someone, but you could have avoided that with simply parking your character in providence before taking an extended break from the game.
You don't actually need work to get rid of madness lvls, if you are patient.
You can use the hookah once a day (read: at least 24h in between uses), freely available in the crypt under the graveyard, or in the den (needs affluence gear).
And you can use a teddy bear for -1 madness lvl per 8h+ sleep in a bed, but you won't get one for free (usually).
So my advise here is, go make another char and play with that one for a few days until you got your madness under control, no need to risk anything or feel constantly threatened.
