I hate to sound like one of those podcast bros who thinks psychedelics are a quick fix for all ills. But anyway here's a thing:

I did an ayahuasca ceremony during a rut I had a few years back. I didn't see the face of God or anything. But I got a clear insight that all I really wanted to do was teach and write, and that my coding work was ideally in service of those first two goals. I definitely attribute the rut-breaking to this.

If it helps give context, I also have ADHD, and it plays a big role in my routines, productivity practices, and how I maintain my mental health. I am also religious about sleep, meditation, diet, exercise, and waking early (all of which help manage the ADHD). So, as others have pointed out, one should make sure those boxes are checked before experimenting with sources of epiphany.
