That's just silly. You don't magically become schizophrenic due to y2k!!! There is a long chain of criteria, as well as warning signs which can sometimes be traced back all the way to childhood. Schizophrenics are already Napolean, Je_us, and Shirley McClain, with or without y2k. Hype does not have the power to induce schizophrenia, IMHO.
