The mixed feeling of madness, laughter, desperation, and awe that one feels when encountering Abstract Algebra concepts.
"Dude I can't do this anymore, all these numbers, set theory, equivalence relations, they're making me lose my mind, I feel like laughing and crying"
"Yeah, welcome to Algebraic Hysteria, you'll be feeling that for a while"
An evil form of magic that only the best of sorcerers can master. Not only does it involve numbers, but letters (mostly x and y). They somehow rearrange themselves into supposedly simpler forms of themselves. I don't know how because I have not mastered the dark magic of algebra yet, nor do I intend to. Teachers try to teach you formulas to learn the magic, but half the time it would only take a true sorcerer to know what's going on.
Teacher: Today in algebra, we will be learning about simplifying fractions. Simplify the following problem:
10x/3x2 + 4/x-1 + 5/6x
Me: *Head explodes trying to comprehend the magic involved*
