Must be getting real cheap weed. Surely seeing a psychiatrist would be a better "investment" for your mental health.
Could you elaborate on why you wouldn't last 1 week at a tech company?

I am definitely working for a "business visionary", although he pays me decently and we have decent traction.
I wouldn't last a week at a tech company because I have huge troubles with authority and policies and rules etc. I've never had a "real job" in my life; always in not very interesting organizations (including academia) where my lack of discipline was tolerated.
EDIT: And I really hope you wouldn't say this to his face, I hope you understand what you're doing. Calling him immature only makes his problems worse, he came to HN for help and got criticized unfairly.
- you're valuable to your startup and difficult to replace
- the more traction your startup gets, the better your next job
- cofounder disagreement is normal, otherwise you're not engaged enough
- address any issues and don't be afraid to ask for justification if you disagree with anything, after all the value of a startup is to teach you how to make hard decisions
- is there anything interesting you think the startup should be doing, but isn't? Do it! - is there anything marketable that you want to learn, but it only relates to the startup tangentially? Do it!
