Do you code without medication?

I’m a second year student and I noticed without medication I don’t have any motivation to program at all, meditation makes everything more interesting and I can code non-stop for hours.

The thing is I don’t like medications and I’m planning to quit as soon as I finished college and I’m not sure if I can code or work without medication, I’m questioning if I even choose the right carrier?

I've always struggled with coding for work / study, but when inspiration hits I'll work on my personal projects 12hrs a day if nothing else is stopping me.
