I feel like I'm in the minority of being able to be at the top of my game during the day, and still having the freedom of lighting a small joint to decompress in the evening.

I've always had sleep issues since I was a kid, and I've evolved from sleeping pills with a TV on to just a few tokes, and I'm out like a light; ready to annihilate the following day. Furthermore, I still get up at 6:30am to go to the gym, read a chapter or two of whatever I read in bed the night before and start work with a boost of energy that comes from within.

Any career professionals, be it IT or real estate, still utilize weed in some way or another?

I'm well aware of the adverse effects on REM sleep due to frequent marijuana use, but I believe the extent of sleep quality degradation varies from person to person.

I'm a 23yr old computer nerd working in software support, a foot in the door. I've been trying my hardest to find my niche in IT. Learning all that I can and where I want my career to point towards, but I'm finding it very difficult.

Furthermore, I think I'm blinded by the fear of AI replacing/assisting a large majority of the industry by the time I'm an experienced professional, and that my years of study in the wrong direction could be somewhat redundant. I'm certain there's no wrong answer as long as you're passionate, but I can't figure out what I'm passionate for.

I know this feels like a newbie question, and I don't want you to tell me that security or cloud is the way to go. I just want to know a bit about why you thought your specialisation was the best choice out of thousands. Folks in my position that love tech and business, what clicked?
