I'm guessing it's more (2) and likely placebo effect if there really is an effect. At least from a drug perspective.
If adrenochrome itself were a real drug worth doing, the site Erowid would have plenty of reports about it rather than the literally two it does which are hardly glowing. (Note in the second report adrenochrome actually is oxidized adrenaline/epinephrine. Which considering takes a bit of time exposed to air pretty much debunks the idea that a freshly-killed baby's blood is full of the stuff, which is what is at the core of the theory here AFAIK?)
