Serious allegations about Elon Musk’s excessive drug use surface as he leaves the Trump administration.
The New York Times

The New York Times paints a disturbing picture of Elon Musk’s drug habits. Although the Wall Street Journal has already reported on some of these, the NYT’s investigation claims that the extent of the billionaire’s consumption is far greater than had previously been assumed, or than he himself had acknowledged. The devastating article draws on numerous sources and proves to be very exhaustive.
"negative moods"

While he claimed to treat his “negative moods” only with small doses of ketamine, about once every two weeks in his own words, several observers pointed to public appearances where Elon Musk seemed visibly under the influence of drugs.
Examples in public

One of the most talked-about examples is his presence at Donald Trump’s inauguration, where he was filmed staring at the ceiling, head and eyes spinning, a behavior interpreted by many as evidence of increased consumption, at the very moment when he was in the president’s direct orbit.
Mushrooms and ecstasy

According to sources close to his consumption habits quoted by the New York Times, Elon Musk would not limit himself to ketamine: he would also use hallucinogenic mushrooms and ecstasy. The newspaper claims that he has developed an excessive consumption of these substances.
Medical complications

But the New York Times goes further, claiming that Elon Musk’s ketamine consumption, which he publicly downplayed, had become so extensive as to have led to medical complications.
A well-documented symptom

According to the newspaper, the substance caused him bladder problems, a well-documented symptom of excessive or chronic ketamine use.
Erratic behavior

While Elon Musk’s behavior at several political events has fueled suspicions of possible drug use, these allegations are based on behavior deemed erratic at official meetings or public appearances. Musk, for his part, has categorically denied these accusations.
