Elon Musk has made it clear in the past what he thinks about drugs. For example, in 2018 he recorded a very public hit on a joint as part of the podcast ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’. Now the Wall Street Journal reports that high-ranking employees of Tesla and Co. worrying about the billionaire because he reportedly consumes LSD, ketamine and magic mushrooms en masse.
According to his own statements, his doctors prescribed him his ketamine; in small doses it is said to help against depression. When Musk was the host, there were sometimes large amounts of it at his parties. The Wall Street Journal lists several anecdotes whose truth cannot be verified: in Los Angeles he is said to have consumed a large amount of LSD, and in Mexico he was fond of magic mushrooms.
The fact that Musk repeatedly stirs controversy with provocative statements may be due not only to his personality, but also to his handling of illegal substances – or at least that is what some board members and executives of his companies believe. They worry about the visionary’s mental health.
The report states that former Tesla boss Linda Johnson Rice did not seek re-election in 2019 due to Musk’s drug use and associated unstable behavior.
This could be a problem, especially for ‘SpaceX’, which works closely with the US space agency NASA, because illegal drug use violates federal guidelines. According to the Wall Street Journal, Musk allegedly consumed illegal substances with current SpaceX employees. Tens of thousands of jobs and about $1 billion in investment assets would be at stake.
One of Musk’s lawyers has now announced that the billionaire at ‘SpaceX’ had to undergo regular drug tests and that these were always negative.
