I’ve got a bunch of meditation under my belt so my metacognitive awareness is quite good imo.
Stimulants that are attention increasing such as caffiene or modafinil generally lead to more tunnelvision and less metacognitive awareness in my experience. This generally leads to less ability to update opinions quickly.
Nicotine that activates acetylcholine receptors allow for more curiosity which allow me to update more quickly so it is dependent on the stimulant as well as the generak timing. (0.6mg in gum form, too high spike just leads to a hit and not curiosity). It is like being more sensitive and interested in whatever appears around me
If you’re sensitive enough you can start recognizing when different mental modes are firing in your brain and adapt based on what you want, shit is pretty cool.
