You have to inject the drug properly :) From what I understand, a lot of the rush in problem-solving comes from release of dopamine, and dopamine itself is the fuel for problem-solving.

So start slowly, solve a simple task, then ride the dopamine levels upwards by solving more and more, until you hit the flow.

Although, I do not understand why would anyone want to get addicted to programming. Trying to have something that can earn money while getting you high naturally is one thing, trying to imitate successful addicts in hopes of huge success is a cargo cult.
