>> After the experience, it's clear to me why some of my colleagues in Silicon Valley (even my roommate, now at FANG) take cocaine or adderall. Absolutely bonkers that an engineer (I assume?) would think they need to do this to push themselves through the day while working at one of those companies (or really, any company besides his/her own). I always chocked this up to leftover substance addiction from college. I'm a bit interested in this - how would you convinced a coked-up colleague that they're literally killing themself for some faceless company and a load papers with symbols on them? Must they crash and burn first prior to getting off their dopamine-riddled high horse? There are just so many options available now, conventional and not. I strongly feel that anyone who has run though a gamut of SSRIs or otherwise has a substance problem need to give psychedelics like iboga a serious look. (I know, quite a tough sell. One can really only get help if they want it and are willing to make serious changes.)
