Elon Musk's Use Of Ketamine May Contribute To Erratic Behavior, Says Ronan Farrow: 'Led To Him At Times Talking About His Loneliness...'

The ongoing use of ketamine by Tesla chief Elon Musk may be causing his unpredictable behavior, suggests journalist Ronan Farrow, WION reported.

In a recent CNN interview, Farrow, who recently wrote an extensive piece on Musk in the New Yorker, indicated that Musk’s ketamine consumption might be a contributing factor to his erratic conduct. He raised questions about the significant power Musk holds as a billionaire tech entrepreneur while expressing concerns about his behavior.

“And we are seeing in these recent years that Elon Musk has behaved erratically at times, that the biographical facts that you mentioned led to him at times talking about his loneliness, his sadness, the fact that there have been questions about his psychopharmacology and public reports about the Tesla board being worried about his Ambien use,” he said.

The use of ketamine, an anesthetic also used for treating depression and PTSD, is a legal practice, but Farrow emphasized the importance of checks on such powerful individuals.

Musk, who has previously stated that ketamine is a “better option” compared to other depression medications, runs several companies and is under constant stress, says a colleague. His dedication to his businesses has resulted in a personal life characterized by sacrifice and stress.
