i would NOT use ecstasy for anything constructive though (way too distracting), and i imagine opioids would also be futile as they'd just put you to sleep.
xanax could lend confidence to your design decisions

I've come up with some amazing ideas when stoned and written them down, only to look at them the next morning and realise they were completely insane, or just really fucking obvious!
- ha! true dat!!! but i've also come up with some pretty good ones too..Projectile
- though whether i'd have come up with a better one had i been sober is a question..Projectile

scarabin you sound like a proper twat you know that? you should take a step back and hear yourself, for your own good.

"if you need abstract thinking or are doing repetitive, boring tasks, smoke pot.
if you need to stay up all night to make a deadline, use amphetamines or coke.
if you have an enormous complex problem that requires clarity and creative visualization, use acid."
What if I need to do all three?

i use beer, gin and wine. largely to help me get drunk. it's all about understanding your drugs and using them to achieve what you want to achieve.

boshing 600mg phenibut twice a day is a good start towards productivity.

I couldn't even begin to get any work done each day if I didn't have Tea.

I think the drugs used in this industry are not the ones mentioned. I can smoke a joint or drink or do coke but a day later I feel like shit.
If there is a drug that helps you work it would be Provigil or something like that that helps increase your concentration/ attention span.

When I'm out pioneering the wonderous terrain of the chemical zone, I like to dress up as a spaceage police ranger, I also get my friends to call me Cobalt 2012, it really adds to the experience. Sometimes it's good to rub tiger balm in my eyes and clamp crocodile clips onto my nipples, it's pretty extreme and you squares probably won't be able to handle it. Me and my friends are born creative explorers so we're always coming up with zacky ideas, this one time we figured out how to physically heal self harm scars simply by using isotropic concoctions of Ketamin extract, Rorer 714 and the tip of my bellend – I'd simply apply the paste to my flesh pipette and rub it on her clitoris and she'd feel sometimes feel better. Sometimes the side effects would make her cry and call me 'Popsicle' but that's cool, we're fuck buddies anyhow, like y'know.

Good to see the old thread getting dusted off.
It's making me want a beer and a joint.

bottom line_if you are seeking inspiration you don't have to use drugs to find it.

Never blab or preach. It's a personal choice. Keep it to yourself or you sound like a twat.
