At Greendoor, we focus on cognitive enhancement, but we recognize that conversations about mental performance often overlap with mental illness. The line between optimization and treatment is sometimes blurred, misunderstood, or overlooked. Our role is to bring clarity rather than labels. Understanding Mental Illness Mental illness refers to diagnosable conditions that disrupt mood, thinking, behavior,…

What are nootropics? Nootropics, sometimes called “smart drugs” or cognitive enhancers, are substances that may improve mental functions such as memory, focus, alertness, or motivation. Some are prescription medications (for example modafinil or methylphenidate), while others are over the counter compounds, herbs, or dietary supplements. Are nootropics safe? Safety depends on the specific compound, the…

At Greendoor, we make sense of nootropics without hype, misinformation, or false promises. We explore the science, ethics, and everyday realities of cognitive enhancement in a world where mental performance is often treated as a requirement for success.

This is cognitive support,…

At Greendoor, we talk about nootropics, brain health, and mental performance, but none of these exist in isolation. Cognitive optimization is not possible when basic needs are unmet. Housing is not only a social issue. It is also a cognitive issue. People experiencing housing insecurity or chronic homelessness often endure elevated stress, disrupted sleep, poor…

Nootropics are just one part of a much larger picture, because your mental performance is influenced by sleep, nutrition, stress, lifestyle, and even your beliefs about what is possible. We do not see health as a binary. It…
