not schizophrenia at all but drug induced psychosis. In my experience there are two kinds of mathematics speed and hash. <-- only kinda a joke. I do not partake myself but then again I am not that good of a mathematician. It is very tempting when in the middle of a proof to stay up as long as possible for me I did not use any stimulant unless working on overnight proof then energy drinks mostly and yerba Mate.

My cocktail was a 64 ounce mountain dew with a redbull poured into it until I found the the QT let you fill 64 ounces drinks with their in house energy drink rooster booster then I used that. 3 or 4 through the night with a few cups of yerba mate of course faithfully not using caffeine the rest of the time.
