In an interview with Don Lemon, Elon Musk revealed that he is taking Ketamine, a drug. This could explain his erratic behavior on Twitter/X, which had led to fluctuating revenue.
Elon Musk explained that the drugs help him perform in his businesses. In addition to closely managing X, Elon Musk also leads Space X and Tesla. Page Six reports:
“What matters is execution,” the tech mogul, 52, said on “The Don Lemon Show” Monday — prior to ending his partnership with host Don Lemon over how the overall interview went down.
“Tesla is worth about as much as the rest of the car industry combined … so that’s pretty good,” he added, pointing out, “From an investor’s standpoint, if there is something I’m taking, I should keep taking it.”
Ketamine can cause hallucinations, but can also cause problems for those who suffer from depression. It is used by veterinarians on horses, but Elon Musk seems to think he functions best when on those drugs. Fox News explains:
Ketamine, a hallucinogenic anesthetic drug, was first approved in 1970 as an anesthetic for use by medical doctors and veterinarians.
Since then, ketamine has been shown to have powerful effects on the brain, particularly for people suffering from depression, according to Dr. William Prueitt, director of the Ketamine Treatment Program at Silver Hill Hospital in Connecticut.
Elon Musk is currently in a predicament, with Tesla being valued very highly but also fluctuating in the stock market. His hold of X is crucial for GOP success in the coming election, as the mainstream media has thrown their lot in with Joe Biden.
