Adderall, high protein low carb diet (like keto), some nootropics like modafanil, 5-htp, though I personally didn’t notice any improvements with modafanil, but I also might just have weird physiology since a lot of painkillers and recreational drugs don’t really effect me, so ymmv.

Caffeine, workplaces wouldn't supply it if it didn't help with productivity. Even if it just helps with mood, that clarity of mind is an increase in intelligence. Too much of course can make you wig out and get all retarded though.

>>39561575Depends on what you classify as "intelligence"t. drug anonStimulants will increase focus and motivating, the ability to pay attention to one problem and gave the desire to solve it will increase your "intelligence" in the sense that you can use it to become better at solving problems in a timely manner.Psychedelics like LSD can increase intelligence because they increase creativity and non-linear problem solving. You gain the ability to look at problems in new and novel ways. This is likely closest to the answer you're looking for. Certain peptides can increase brain health, which can give you a more permanent increase in reaction time and spacial memory. Epithalon or others break down amylase plaques and increase blood flow to key areas of your brain. This is shown to increase your ability to recall information and store more information longer.

Weed has mild neurogenic properties with few side effects. Psychedelic mushrooms are stronger but come with more side effects.It's not about the period of high. It's about what your brain does for days after. Your brain is put in a state of temporarily increased elasticity, which is good for learning.

>>39561575i am still convinced to certain kinds of users marijuana can be. it has been so polluted with stoner advertising, its always seen as the drug that makes you sleepy and think too deep about trivial things. but it really is a cognitive enhancer on some level and if used properly can reveal information about reality. i mean imagine there was a plant that if you smoked or ate you would receive mathematical or musical insight, such a plant would be seen as divine in some sense. and thats exactly what marijuana does, it offers insight and perspective. you just have to be using it for that purpose. its the same with all enthiogens, people misuse shrooms and LSD as "woah world trippy" instead of experiencing some of the greatest rational insights they will ever have in their life.

I am sure the people who are able to take it and go "woah!" watching netflix and eating junk food are just low functioning people without the weed. For anyone with more going on up there but it might be muddy or stuck it can help release it. Has to be used with intention this way, treat it less as "fun" or "relief" or whatever it is marketed as and use it as a real tool and it'll serve people well imo.

Psychedelics don't increase cognitive function or intelligence, they increase neuroplasticity, which helps you develop intelligence but isn't intelligence in itself. Doing LSD in your room won't make you smarter, but theoretically doing LSD and doing focused reading and studying might. The people who think neuroplasticity is the same thing as intelligence fry themselves and become drooling retards, neuroplasticity is your brain physically rewiring itself to accommodate incoming mental stimuli, so if you just jerk off and watch TV you're basically giving yourself brain damage.Stimulants actually do increase intelligence, Caffeine causes a noticeable IQ bump, and Adderall, tobacco, etc. This is temporary because ultimately a lot of your cognitive function comes from your rate of metabolization, but it does make you "smarter".
>>39577815Well said. I appreciate the nuance.
>>39562277Gave me quite a good laugh. Thanks Anon.
>>39561575I'm getting serious déjà vu here.Hasn't this exact question been asked here like a million times.I swear some of these answers are basically the same.
>>39561575No such thing exists, Algernon
>>39577815How does this make any sense?Psychedelics only improve neuroplasticity but you need to keep learning and studying to be able to know extra stuff. So psychedelics make the process of assimilating new information easier.But stimulants make you smarter? They give a temporary Int bonus. So what? You drink coffee and all of a sudden you know things you didn't know before? Rate of metabolization is a weird way of saying learn and study hard. In the end it just means psychedelics and stimulants act the same way, they make it easier for you to learn.
>>39577815Stimulants decrease intelligence significantly in the long term which should be addressed, your brain responds to increased levels of monoamines by enacting homeostasis and downregulating the receptors they attach to, essentially over time you lose dopamine, serotonin and noradrenalin G-protein coupled receptors. Even one big dose can do this, normally the brain recovers and upregulates over time, but the effect is permanent if the drug is binged or used while underageNote that this applies to basically all drugs. Cannabis will downregulate your cannibanoid receptors which is permanent if you keep doing it, alcohol will downregulate your gaba, etc. No drug on planet earth will make you smarter permanently except for psychedelics when used correctly, however even then I doubt psychedelics really enhance intelligenceI've tripped probably 50-60 times in my life and all psychs do is turn your brain into a sponge, whatever you're looking at integrates into your ego permanently. The newly formed neurons are just like babies, if you throw a baby in a ghetto you have a nigger on your hands. Well said, anon

Instead of trying to patch the holes with drugs, instead look into fixing chronic low-level inflammation.ADHD and depression (with no apparent cause) are caused by inflammation, usually from diet.

Piracetam is the monk's choice of supplement.

Seeing some incredibly shitty answers here, as in normies who barely research shit.Modafinil: Shit, doesn't even come close to adderall in the effects department, it had no focus effects on me and I remember taking two over a period of 3 hours and then falling asleep 3/10 (maybe the placebo)Phenibut:Social lubricant, one time I had this "high" that reminded me of the limitless movie where he takes NZT, colours became brighter more vibrant, music was better to hear and I was chatting up random people. Overall chasing that dragon isnt worth it and you build up tolerance fast, 6/10, I find that it mostly has social effects (which HCC vapes are better at) and the intelligence stuff is mostly because you are somewhat relaxed and not overthinkingNoopept:Had and did it for awhile, idk. My memory improved but the effects where not instant and rather underwhelming, it works. 8/10Honestly read this; https://gwern.net/nootropic/nootropicsNeuro-steroids and a good diet (RayPeat inspired?) and sleep will have the best effects. Pretty sure some rich mofos/agencies have some real NZT type stuff, it's not hard to notice with USA's previous president going from a husk of human being with no thought to a functioning human.
>>39561575Low key drink poppi, or even better Wonder Pop if you have a Wegmans. I feel like I’m operating in a do dimension because of that. It’s literally giving me psychic abilities.
Cerebrolysin (or eating brains), Actovegin (or drink blood), Citicoline (or eating 10 eggs a day), microdosing LSD/psilocybin, fasting for 3 days every 2 weeks (ketones clear brain from carbs protecting it from type 3 diabetes and increase LDL to fix any damage), fermented high meat, optimizing gut bacteria, removing mold toxicity and parasites from your body, increasing bloodflow to the brain, training n-back/corsi/grapheme color synesthesia/memory palaceI also did talk to my subconciouss a bunch of times, but you need to get yourself in theta waves (shower or near sleep) and have deep trust in yourself to do that
Nootropics is what you're looking for. (Mind lab pro is my recommendation for a beginner all around stack)Colloidal Gold and Colloidal Silver work wonders for me as well. Gold for faster thinking and Silver to just completely eliminate sickness. (I recommend mesogold and mesosilver on [purestcolloids . Com]) I also recommend 750mg carvacrol which is the active ingredient in oregano oil. As well as 1000mg NAC. I take all of the above daily and it has gotten rid of my brain fog and instilled a greater clarity of mind that I didn't realize was missing. The only way to counteract the effects of brain rot and fix your attention span is uninterrupted meditation for at least 30 minutes a day.

Thats the basics. Hope it helped some.

What about testosterone? That's the main drug that makes a man a man, and not only are men smarter than women, but low T men tend to be dumber in some pretty important ways. It may not improve your IQ measure per se, but it certainly improves aspects of the self that lead to more intelligent behavior.
There are basically 4 options in life. They are not completely exclusive, so you can do some combination thereof, but there are essentially no alternatives. 1. Live an unexamined life. Be stupid but happy.2. Live a life dedicated to service, either to other people or to ideas, or to both. You may only serve the universe and not a single soul, but you believe a more well-ordered universe would also serve other people like you. This life is similar to #1 but perceives itself to be more purpose-driven. The problem is that the person often doesn't take care of themselves and cultivate strength (nor do they observe the morals required to cultivate it as such). This worldview seems like the best of all worlds until it comes crashing down with a few redpills. It's still a nice idea to dabble in, because the other options don't always seem so great.3. Live an examined life, and suffer, for observance is generally first the experience of suffering before it is overcome. This type of life requires toughness, and its ethics cannot easily be communicated in words, because it is not based on the reasoning of the ideas. It's based on the reasoning of cause and effect. The furthest I've gotten is that strength is the most important ethic, and without it, there can be no others and no meaning.1/2
>>396008614. Drugs: endogenous or exogenous, zero or non-zero sum values. One can approach life at a physical level, even as a conscious being, and based on #3, this certainly appears to be part of a winning strategy, as one needs strength, and strength does not discriminate. There are ultimately four categories of things that I'm grouping together here (the bijection of the two tuples listed above): endogenous drugs with zero sum values, exogenous drugs with zero sum values, endogenous drugs with non-zero sum values, exogenous drugs with non-zero sum values. It's easier to talk about these traits and then think of examples for all four categories. Endogenous drugs are things your body can create, ranging from something like DMT to dopamine to testosterone --- your body is a veritable drug factory. Exogenous drugs are things you consume, ranging from pharmaceuticals to herbs to foods to isolated vitamin/mineral/supplement/chemical extracts. Zero sum values refer to the fact that some drugs come with downsides that may equal their benefit (ie, zero sum), but you do them anyway because you are compelled to. This includes things like alcohol that may have hardly a conceivable benefit (especially considering alternatives), but it also includes activities more "hedonistic" in character that may offer diminishing returns as well as draw from a well of energy or capacity to enjoy other activities (making _that_ the zero sum). The non-zero sum drugs are the things that can be produced through beneficial activity like exercise, healthy diet, and health-promoting supplements and, yes, "drugs".2/3
>>39600890The very very last category that I mention is the whole point of this thread. This was a very long-winded way to make a point that drugs are indeed an important aspect of morality. They always were. I would argue that things which strengthen us as a physical level can allow us to give up the mental coping that appears necessary in the prior steps of evolution. All drugs, of course, can do this. Only some of them actually benefit us. However, it's pretty certain in my mind that some do, that a life on some "drugs" and supplements is a life better lived. This includes coffee, tea, maybe some weed, mushrooms during a moment of personal crisis, a good multivitamin, some Chinese/Indian/African herbs, a good diet, a good lifting regimen, etc. Maybe it includes some herb in the Amazon rainforest or in the Ural mountains that I've never heard of --- I remain open to taking anything that benefits me. I could include other activities such as a good reading regimen, but the mental does not preclude the physical. Conversely, the physical supports the mental. They must live in harmony, and philosophers must account for this.In another sense, I am not recognizing heroine or fentanyl as good for you or defending their use, but I am saying some of the things that are seen as feeble options are in fact some of our best drugs, and they ARE drugs because they are impermanent and their primary benefit is physical, not ideological (covered by second category).3/3
>>39600924In other words, the progression from normie to enlightened is a continual process, as you spread yourself across these different strategies for maintaining/pursuing wellbeing. In some sense, you progress, although in another, your desire is always to fall backwards if you can. So in one sense, chemical alterations of the self (drugs) allow you to pursue behaviors that most deviate from the lower programming of psychologies of no thought / only instinct, only belief, or only rationality. It's playing life on "hard mode" to accept all three of these in your "mental family" so to speak, to use them as methods of going through life and accepting these parts of yourself, while ALSO not fully committing to them and losing this temporarily elevated sense of consciousness. This elevated sense of consciousness is thus supported chemically, through action or consumption, not thought or accident.I truly believe that philosophers are weak men who pretend to be strong. And consequently, their philosophy ends up more often than not being a reversal of truth (good ones are brilliant in some areas and only short-sighted in a few), as a cope against reality which they are too weak to face without philosophy. This is true of religion of course too, so philosophy is only a more intelligent religion.
