What substance do you use for long programming sessions ?

thats rough. I mean I enjoy energy drinks myself but 3 cans of these plus 20+ cups of coffee is fucked up. I am surprised you haven't crash with so much caffeine through your system user.

>If I eat, it's usually a bit of Vegemite on toast.
The user is a gourmet. I applaud your taste.

do you not use the adderall or do you just agument it with exercise and diet?

I quit it entirely. There are noticible tunnel vision effects from it. Ever since I stopped I noticed my creativity hasn't been hampered.

Alpha GPC, Aniracetram, fish oil, multivitamin, caffeine, L Theanine, and lions mane.

phencyclidine

>normies need to take drugs in order to program
The absolute state.

Vyvanse 20mg prescribed

Abstract thinking is unnecessary, you're not writing a novel. Programming is all deductive reasoning.
I use caffeine, the maximum amount I can handle without becoming an insomniac (About 120mg, luckily enough).

That said, motivation is probably more important again. So I can see some use for depressants, especially on the weekend.

Coding is highly intelligence dependant. If you do it while drunk you will make negative progress. If you do it caffeinated (at the peak of your attention) your productivity goes way up.
So far I've never worked on the same stack long enough for my productivity to be the customers problem.

cocaine + xanax = god mode

probably you are going to fall flat, due to cardiac arrhythmia, but sure if you can stand it, could be interesting.

plenty of people do it all the time. to me personally it sounds like a recipe to black out and do some weird shit

you need to watch porn and jerk off. not only will your mind be clear but you will be productive and motivated

2 sugar free red bull, a fresca, a coke zero. The occasional coffee,

fpbp

Just take a rail every 40~60 mins no biggie. Second, take adderall 25 mg and smoke about 3 cigs [America Spirit] not the other fag shit everyone takes on break. You can't go wrong with this plan.

i smoke as well and feel like i'm retarded for smoking in 21st century. how do you cope with that feeling if you have any, user?

Dihydrogen Monoxide

water and energy drinks honestly. sometimes i pop a caffeine pill

pcp

This.

Eat healthy
Exercise regularly and multiple times a week
Get good sleep
Literally take care of yourself, including your social life.

Drug addictions and stimulants are for people who don't take care of themselves and their bodies are not able to keep up with the simple demands they put on it, like to concentrate and focus.

Also, stop fapping, stop watching porn. It hurts you.

About 25%-50% of Americans are daily coffee drinkers. I'm not saying anything about that.

Me? I wake up with a few milligrams of Adderall and some tea. :^)

Alcohol.

This. Fucking dumb junkie corporate slaves.

the threat of homelessness

Coffee or tea
Sugar free coke sometimes

I used to drink coke with sugar before, but while it had an immediate positive effect on my concentration, in the long run it would mess up my sense of hunger and thus ruin my concentration. I also started excercising twice a week 6 months ago, but that has actually had a negative effect on my concentration (I'm exhausted and tired all the time). I will continue doing it though, because I seriously need to lose some weight.

tiny meals, daily exercise, hydration
if I'm having a rough day, I'll drink some weak coffee, but that happens maybe once a week at most

i snort coke straight outa bucket. the chad way.

I don't really program for long, most of the time I am thinking about what I want to do and how, and writing my stuff and snippets on paper first, it makes me calm for some reason and gives me assurance in some way, once I am through that writing/adding that stuff in my project takes hardly anytime(I am no webdev) but in android development even small sitting were super big and would wet my butt with sweat so in those times and generally while working I just drink water and bananas.
>tl;dr
water and bananas

Water and willpower. Only fags need anything else.

get carbs before sport

>whole ass speedball
>for any task that requires focus
Youll sooner jack off 23 times in 5 hours then collapse from dehydration than actually work on whatever you needed coke for.

>desoxyn
You're either morbidly obese or lying

Coffee 2-3 times per week. No more.
At 10-11 am. Drinking more coffee makes you caffeine dependant and has 0 positive benefits - you just feel like shit without it, and a bit less tired with it.

Same thing with teas. Alcohol is fine. But don't drink and code too much - you'll have a wonderful intangible mess that works - good luck understanding it next day.

Water otherwise, occasional OJ because OJ is love, OJ is life. I sometimes throw in a multivitamin to my water.

Stay the fuck away from sugary drinks.
Eat fruits instead of sweets. Sweets give you very short term boost... And then fuck you up.

Chips are fine, buy you aren't degenerate enough to touch your keyboard with cheeto fingers, are you?

Sleep is as important as everything else. Do not overslep, do not cut your sleep short either - 7-8h is fine, 4h if you are one of rare humans with that specific mutation.

Fuck maybe Im not depressed and its literally just water

Exactly the same for me man. That shit just rolls baby.

Basically: But I don't have anything with caffeine, just water.

Only retards fuck with their brains.

Sounds like you need a better diet. Start by figuring out how many calories you need each day, this is the easiest and has the most effect for the effort it takes. Get into some sort of intermittent fasting, this will make your body more efficient and give you more energy every day. Figure out your electrolyte intake either by logging the foods you eat and their nutrition (cheaper more time consuming method) or by getting bloodwork done (expensive faster method). Having a good electrolyte balance will have a massive effect on your bodies function.

Those are the big things. They aren't as easy to figure out as they sound. Once you have figured those things out a bit, you can start looking at other things like vitamin intake, exercise, and macronutrient balance. This things can vary wildly for each person so I can't say much about what might work for you, but personally I feel best when most my energy comes from fats and I keep my carb intake very low. I supplement with Iodine because it's nearly nonexistent in my diet, as well as some other things that help my naturally depressed disposition. Oh yeah, lastly, figure out your best waking hours (everyone is different, personally I do best getting up at about 4am, but some people even prefer 4pm) how much sleep you need, how to get restful sleep, etc.

What you will find after fixing up those things is that using drugs actually gets you going without bad side effects. If alcohol, weed, and coffee are having poor effects on you right now it's probably that your body is too unhealthy and you are consuming large amounts because small amounts have no effect. If you get into good health, you'll notice effects of small amounts of any drug (i.e. a single beer or shot, instead of needing 3, or 50mg caffeine instead of 300). Alcohol shouldn't make you sleepy in small amounts unless you are unhealthy or need sleep, it should make you feel "lit up," in small amount anyway. Avoid drugs anyway tho.

only reasonable answers in this thread.
I can also recommend doing hits of methoxetamine

> only retards fuck with their brains
he doesn't realize that necessary nutrients like magnesium change brain chemistry

i just eat when hungry really, and since i wake up late i eat lunch and suppers.

also this shit takes way too fucking effort, i cba to make a dream log for lucid dreaming and i failed at dieting to bulk when on Jow Forums, and you want me to go all bureaucrat on what i eat lol

you drug addicts won't last very long

user, are you ok?

then don't do it, most people don't. it's worth it though.

My HRT pills, so I keep wake up fantasizing about being fucked in the ass.

i'm not him but I've had periods where I drink several pots of coffee a day. easily 40 cups. I don't even want to know how much caffeine that is. It gave me no crash or headaches, even when I would abruptly stop. Some people just have different body chemistry. I also am guessing I'm a "fast metabolizer" meaning my body very quickly and efficiently eliminates drugs like caffeine meaning it's quite possible that 30 cups of coffee for me is like 5 cups for someone else.

Agreed. When my body was in my best shape I didn't felt like I needed to drink or smoke much to be "on", maybe because most of the time I already was like that because of the positive feedback loop of exercising and eating healthy. Currently trying to regain these habits

oh yeah, also I've been on caffeine since probably the age of 2 since my parents let be drink from their big gas station coca cola cups when I was very young. so who knows, maybe my body adapted to caffeine.

Is doing coke and masturbating really that amazing? I did coke some years ago, but never had this urge to masturbate while on it

not true. remember moderation. couple bumps for focus, and 1mg xanax to take the "edge" off so you're not fidgety. it feels like raw energy that I can tap into to work for hours straight.

Adderral for programming.
Oxycotin to Netflix and chill.
Xanax for bedtime.

Lol, the only way you can get it is if you've tried every other ADHD stim and you get shitty side effects from them all. Ironically, it's smoother and has less euphoria compared to Dexedrine. So if your plan is to be a cumbrain stay with Dexedrine.

I take 10 mg of adderall XR every morning and it works fucking wonders.
I am 10x more productive at work now than I was before. I would go multiple days without doing anything at all. I have pretty bad adhd

Water, brisk walks and Red Bull.

going to the park to shoot some hoops for half an hour really gets me going for some reason.

>he doesn't snack on salt

#define hoops minorities

coffein in pill form
I consume about 700 to 800 miligram per day.
I own a vape, but i only use it for CBD oil. Both things combined make me feel comfy.
At this point i am a full blown addict, but as far as addictions go, it's cheap and doesn't harm much.
combine that with the occasional Tilidin, i get to buy from my nurse friend, it gets fun.
He gets to smuggle stuff out and i pay 10 bucks a pill.

Imagine needing to alter your neurochemistry with drugs to function. Losers

Stick to caffeine. Tea, coffee, caffeine tablets, all work fine in moderation. Don't code high or drunk. It's fun, but you'll just have to delete and rewrite half of it when you're sober.

Water. No drugs, no coffein, no sugar. Nothing that like that. If you really, really need to hit a deadline and need the night then take a coffein pill or two that night. The next 1/2 days after that you won't be productive at all so only when necessary.

After long deliberation, I decided that abiding arbitrary principles that actively make your life worse with no tangible benefits is morally wrong for the same reasons that all self-harm is morally wrong.

So I take my adderall as prescribed like a good boy and my life has gotten a lot better for it and now I work for computers instead of a grocery store like a flunkie. It took me a while to be okay with that, but now that I can remember to focus long enough to teach myself discipline, I am capable of actually achieving things that give me emotional fulfillment. I am very comfortable with it now, I just wish I always had the perspective of how foolish opinions like yours were so that I never would have wasted years of my life.

This makes me LESS productive and LESS motivated. All I feel like doing afterward is nothing, or masturbating again. Terrible advice. Absolutely horrible. The best trick is to avoid sexual thoughts and arousal. They disrupt flow states.

How did you get it prescribed. What’s a good story I can tell my doctor without having to do a fuck tone of tests or suspensions. I heard some doctors are anal about prescription addy. I actually do have trouble focusing in class these days and tried it once. Shit made my school work so much smoother to flow on.

i tried microdosing LSD and its shit
it makes me a little bit more empathetic, but no effect on productivity or creativity whatsoever

there is zero chance i'd be able to sit still at my computer and focus while high on cocaine.
i used to smoke a shitload of weed while programming, but now it just makes me paranoid.

i drink coffee, 2 cups in the morning and that's it.
i fucked up my body with hardcore drugs for 5 years.

I'm still getting over it and hopefully i can reverse the damage to my body and brain.

>including your social life
How? the boss keeps me in a dungeon, I don't meet anyone. And there are no women in the dungeon.

I chug robocough and type gibberish into notepad

Oh how I long for the days where I screamed at my teacher in class and my doctor gave me a near adult dose Adderall rx
Collegeoids ruined it for us

>(i.e. a single beer or shot, instead of needing 3, or 50mg caffeine instead of 300).
This is almost entirely genetics. 50mg of caffine - no worries. 3 Beers, no effect.
I think you're being mislead due to your experience with caffeine. Its biggest benefit is in decreasing the time between just-awoken-drowsiness and alertness. It probably does the same after a big lunch, though the food means you'll require more. It will not help you run on zero sleep or calories without significant abuse. You probably only use it for the correct reasons when well rested and fed.
Alcohol however works best on no calories or sleep. The healthier you are the faster your body will discard it.
And for both tolerance matters.

Being a light weight must suck. Alcohol is delicious.
