Have sex

because writing code 12h a day for shekel goldbergstein is awfully depressing

Many of us got good at programming because of our addictive personalities in the first place.
Becoming a druggie as an adult is just natural.

Why do people still use intel? The world may never know.

Caffeine is for pussies
real programmers take meth before 24 hour coding sessions

Real programmers get all the speed they need from AMD cpus.

This. Cycling meth turns you into a god.

Drugs? Please. It's just a matter of overclocking

Get shagged incel

Anime counts as a drug.

idk if this is what you're referring to exactly but there was a direct link to hippy culture/psychedelics and electronics

No

yeah but obviously it's very low level.
you can get a dependence on it but because it's ultimately harmless no one really cares.
You can overdose from caffeine but you need an absurd amount.
The only people who die from caffeine take it in pill form or in one of those illegal energy drinks which have loads of sugar and guarana in it as well.
Doctors say 4 cups of coffee daily is fine, unless you're drinking like 30 a day while also taxing your heart with other shit you're safe.

>OP IS GAY
OP is a faggot. user is a faggot, too.

Bait harder

>Jow Forums
>having sex
this is not the page I once knew

IRL sucks

This.

Because drugs are fun.

Because the chemicals in my brain make me feel really fucking lonely sometimes, which is just a consequence of this biological-automaton which I operate.

Smoking weed and drinking booze helps me forget those feels, and go back to focusing on my passion for technology. I sometimes wish I was gay or asexual.

Caffine only because it is non-addictive

Only drugs I take are hormones :3

>I wish I was gay
Good news! You are a flaming faggot already!

but why? if you are born with a dick then u need to stay that way cuz mother nature said so

Who said I was gonna chop off my dick?

If you think that, you're an absolute retard. Caffeine is one of the most addictive substances on the planet.

How do you cycle meth?

Attached: rohan.jpg (1280x720, 134K)

Too expensive.
Do you think we are made of money??

Depends on your body, you have to measure when your tolerance ramps up and when it resets, there's a general curve but it's pretty inacurate.
I do 4 days meth sprint, followed by 4 weeks on-off-off-on-on-off-off, followed by 2 months off. I start my sprint on Tuesday so that i get 2 days sleep when i'm done.
I also don't take meth from some street shiter. Pharma grade amphetamines is the only shit i'm willing to take, might be hard for you to get (or expensive) if you don't have frens from pharma.
Getting your cycle right takes a lot of time, better safe than sorry.

Nope. Tried watching gay porn, tranny porn, etc. This dick only gets hard for women. dunno

its not that hard to OD on caffeine to the point it feels bad though. I once drank 4 energy drinks and smoked some weed (also raises heart rate) and i felt like dying

if you're not doing drugs you're not trying

yes, anyone who says no usually has the classic signs of an addict for caffeine

haven't seen such a pathetic display in a long time on here kid, kudos

bullshit

>taking illegal drugs in order to be more productive at work
the absolute state of wageslaves

Is that why there are so many homeless drug addicts around silicon valley?

I can't tell if this is an elaborate larp or you're actually enriching your life with meth. Why did you decide to use meth instead of Adderall?

Who talked about wages, retard?

I don't take any drugs because I know I have an addictive personality. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't even have coffee.

>Why did you decide to use meth instead of Adderall?
I did not. I started with amphetamine, but meth lasts longer for me and has pretty similar effect (except i get horny) so i can manage tolerance over longer periods.
I take vitamin C and selenium for oxidative stress and N-acetylcysteine for excitotoxicity. That's all i can currently do to minimize neurotoxicity.
I'll stop using in 2 more years, by then i'll have made enough money to never have to worry and the job will be just for routine.

You can’t live without taking drugs.

Planes have thousands of drugs and meats also have drugs.

Sorry brah.

Thanks for tips user, sounds like an interesting cocktail you've got.

Have you ever tried modafinil?

>interesting cocktail you've got
Vitamin C for prevention/reduction of meth-induced oxidative stress wasn't tried in vivo, selenium werks on mice but wasn't tried on humans, same for NAC. It's just for felling good about it, i don't have illusions that my brain is perfectly fine after long-term meth use.
>modafinil
My pharma guy shilled it to me. So it's probably legit.
I don't need it, meth is perfect for me - i just go on a spree. My brain is good enough as it is, all i need is endurance.

No, that's just the USA not giving a shit about people who made some mistake or got ill or something else that cost them their job at some point.

> drug addict
Is what you add when you want to imply it's not a shameful societal failure to help but their impossible to deal with behavior.

There are probably a shitload of people in your area that you could hang out with if you don't want to feel lonely.

You might of course smoke weed or grab a drink with them too.

This 100%. Every other week for me is a psych binge or a meth binge, with weed and benzos to balance me out or let me sleep. This keeps me from sinking into one mindset, and keeps tolerance down. I've never been more productive. I feel like some kind of superhero of programming.

Any hippy worth his or her salt is going to be a luddite.

junkie cope

only in california

I'm really good at getting the computer to do what I want it to do. But for some reason I'm not so good at getting people to do what I want them to do, like invite me to social events or even just choose to communicate with me. Drugs help with the negative feelings that causes me.

>I'll stop using in 2 more years
sure thing buddy

Because, much like as a cook, as long as you produce the result you contractually are obligated to nobody has any reason to care about your lifestyle.
Drugs are not compatible with jobs in which you have to deal directly with customers, and by that also not with rising further in the programming hierarchy, because "at some point, everybody works in sales".

Because your brain is the best computer to hack.

Good movie-tier knowledge about drugs. Most druggies don't use, they abuse and have no self-control.
Don't worry. My last vacation was a whole month and it was timed so that i just ended a cycle, so 3 months off.
Didn't think about meth a single time during vacation (well, at the end i was recounting if i have enough at home for a cycle).
I have no dependence at the end of the cycle (yes, i couldn't quit mid-cycle and if i was forced to, it'd probably get out of hand).
Addiction? I guess it could be, if you squinted hard enough, since i don't want to stop before i'm secured for life. If i got fired, i'd have no reason to continue this.

Google SWE here.

I like pot edibles because they're cheap, legal where I live, low risk, and don't have any visible effect on my performance. If any of these things weren't true, I'd stop. I enjoy it a hell of a lot more than drinking.

Years back I ate a brownie, it was a great experience and even got slightly trippy in the way you would want it to. It was euphoric almost like an opiate. Yet a few months ago I eat 1/4th of a cookie on two occasions and suffer intermittent derealization and depression for months after.

Edibles seem like russian roulette.

But drugs are helpful if you're in sales.

I hate to say that but I've been abusing Xanax a lot lately. I'm constantly an anxious mess and I sometimes cannot fucking do anything and I just stare stressed like a fucking retard at my screen doing nothing because of the stress.

I then take a Xanax and I feel way more relax and a lot of things feel flowing easier. I don't like abusing Xanax. Any other drug to chill the fuck out?

Weed with CBD oil

Standardize your xanax intake to the hour of the day before it gets out of hand, have a schedule at least. Last thing you want to do is take a drug whenever you feel like it. Start lowering the dosage + frequency over time. In the meantime find other methods for dealing with your anxiety. It's probably gonna be a long process, but you'll figure it out.

It's fucking hard dude, I recently net myself a job that's been increasingly harder to please because short deadlines and having to fix a lot of code shit. I just pop Xanax whenever I feel like I'm about to explode mentally and with anxiety but lately it feels like it's been everyday.

Fucking stressful job, it pays kinda good but god damn.

i'm a former addict, you're in a drug induced manic episode and if you don't crash and burn hard then you're 1 in a million broski. good luck though

research mania and manic episodes, that's why you feel so good, but you're probably making very poor behaviors without thinking about them (ppl cal them bad decisions but it's not really a decision if you impulsively do it while in a state of mania or hypomania)

look into your EAP (employer assistance program) they'll basically send you to rehab and pay for it... it sucks but it's one of the best ways to actually get off the shit, rehabs are 'medically asissted' so you won't realy withdraw too hard either. they'll teach you how to not be an anxious mess every second too

that wojak should get replaced by npc wojak

>they'll teach you how to not be an anxious mess every second too
I honestly don't know how that's possible. I've always been an anxious wreck and I just feel an extreme weight in my chest and shaking, even when nothing too bad is happening. I'm a bit pessimistic about that shit. God fucking damn it I'm shaking right now for no fucking reason. I don't wanna be addicted, I don't wanna be a failure...

i know its really scary but they can help you if you just go, the scariest part is asking for help because you don't want to feel the way you feel w.o the drugs, but they understand that and are trained in helping people go through that, some of them are extremely talented as well.

Because most people in general are "druggies"

Cope.

>i can't control my drug use therefore nobody can
Yup yup, keep thinking that.
>you're in a drug induced manic episode
If you think i feel good for taking meth, you're a shithead. Why would anyone feel good for admitting he's not good enough, while shitting up his brain? Ido feel good while on meth, but that's a side-effect for me, i don't take it for that, i don't "miss" the feeling. I just want to be focused for 10-14 hours, go home, sleep, repeat.
Anyway, i don't want to be a wageslave my whole life, this allows me to get in 6 years what would take me a lifetime since my job is largely performance-based.
