This is constantly on my mind.

I code probably for around 8 hours a day, and spend another two staring at spreadsheets before I head home to my young family. This is repeated six days a week. As such I take a stack of Modafinil, Sprint by Nootrobox (https://hvmn.com/sprint), Vitamin B, and one general all rounder vitamin pill to maximize my productivity.

Looking back at a) the not so legal drugs, and b) the large amounts of alcohol I used to consume, I wonder if my brain functions would be much higher at this point. I think reading that article, depressingly the answer is yes.

With my younger days partying at places like Mahiki (https://www.londonnightguide.com/mahiki-guestlist/) then I would consider it a miracle that my brain is even able to function on the level that it does - with or without my Modafinil stack.

In a parallel universe somewhere I'm working at Goldman Sachs and a non-drink or drug taking sensible person from birth.

But meh, that would probably bore me to tears.
