I can spread like a disease… Riddle

$begingroup$


I can spread like a disease,
Only I can't kill,
Unless it's in a phrase.



I can never displease,
Unless you've got skill.
But, I can still infect for many days



What am I?



Hint 1: Might give it all away:




If you add a letter to me, then I suddenly become more ghastly.




Hint 2: In case you need another:




No one can control me and they love it. Even psychopaths
