Who else codes on amphetamine?
>>108457885I code on acid
>>108457939How?
I tried an Adderall prescription for like a week and:>Had panic attacks every day>Cut in line at Dollar General and snapped at an old lady who called me out>Drove double the speed limit everywhere>Went to work at 1 A.M. on 4th of July to light firecrackers inside the building>Fainted in my living room from not eating>Called my friend to tell him all the crazy revelations I had that day, every day>Pissed in the drain in my apartment's laundry room for the thrillsI stopped and called my psychiatrist to tell her we're not going to continue with this medication.
>>108457991Rly? I just felt good and creative. Seems like you might have brain cancer. Not to worry, we consider that the norm.
>>108458007This was 6 years ago and I've been fine since then, so probably not a tumor. I'm fine with crazy amounts of caffeine, though.
>>108458017:D
>>108457885I code whilst drunk
>>108457885I did for about the first 2 months, then one day I decided to play videogames while high and never went back to coding, quit the stuff a long time ago tho. Also wasnt pharma adderal it was just speed paste and I was snorting taht shit, but it's amphetimes nonetheless
>>108457967It sometimes lets you smell the code, which is particularly helpful for finding code smells
>>108457991>Fainted in my living room from not eatingEat at set times or else this will happen again desu
>>108458007I love my addy, but it does the opposite of "creative" for me. Turns me into more of a focused machine and that cancels out some of the abstract creativity that usually runs in the background. One reason why I don't want a higher dosage, just turns me into a different person.
>>108459075Get ahold of yourself... I just get very focused...
>>108457885No.Remember - It doesn't make you better at it, it just makes you think you're better at it.Unless you legitimately have ADHD, or you're unable to do more due to exhaustion (as a one-off, you pay for it later), it is of no benefit.
>>108459317I have ADHD and depression.
>>108459317>it makes you think you're betterWhy do people think this is worthless? It's the essence of all achievement. You have to believe in it and you need the drive to pursue it.
>>108457991Did you remember to blink?
>>108457991Maybe it works differently for people who don't have ADHD.
>>108457885I code on Arch normally, windows is horrible for coding is Amphetamine linux based?
>>108457991You do not have ADHD. It makes me mellow, drive the speed limit, and I stop hating everybody for a few hours.
For me, it's the herbal jew. I'll literally get home from a headache inducing 6 hours at work, hit the vape every 2-3 hours and I'm good till 2 in the morning again. They just ask so much of me at work, I hate that I have to do this but it makes my life tolerable
adhd people are insufferable. fuck you
>>108458076this
>>108462397Yes, I'm aware. It's not my fault, though. It's a mental disability. Do you find wheel chair-bound people insufferable as well?My brain feels like using a computer running on an HDD: it doesn't matter if your other components are good, you are still bottlenecked by the physics of a mechanical drive.
>>108457885Me every day since I have a Vyvanse prescription.Supplemented by 1-4 cups of coffee a day.I miss coding on weed, was more interesting.
>>108457885>i need a good hookup for addy in the us, i swear it's impossibele to get my friends take vyvanse and go WOOOOOAH and i take 3x their dose and get mild energy. being adhd is horrible
>>108463932>be convinced you know how your brain conpares to anyone else's >because obviously anyone has experience how someone else's brain iscongratulations you have been convinced to be a consoomer for the pharma industry!! Yaaay!
>>108463932> Yes, I'm aware. It's not my fault, though.This is entirely the thing that makes you people utterly unbearable, "oh it's not my fault it's my adhd, so I'm free to be completely obnoxious and self centered and it's your fault if you have a problem with it, not mine. Ok now it's time for my 4 screens long infodump about five nights at Freddy's or whatever my new hobby is this week, while i ignore anything anyone else says or give 'huh oh ok so anyway back to five nights at Freddys' responses"
