    It was gathered that some executives and board members at his companies and others close to the billionaire have become increasingly concerned that his drug use is fueling his erratic behavior in recent years.

    Alex Spiro, an attorney for Musk, said that the CEO told the Journal Musk ‘regularly and randomly drug tested at SpaceX and has never failed a test.’

    Musk smoked marijuana on the Joe Rogan show and has publicly discussed his prescription for the psychedelic-like ketamine.

    However, witnesses told the Journal that the X owner has also used LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and psychedelic mushrooms, often at private exclusive parties around the world where guests have to sign NDAs and hand in their phones to avoid photos being taken.

    The next year he allegedly consumed magic mushrooms at an event in Mexico and in 2021 took ketamine recreationally with his brother at a house party in Miami.

    The billionaire has even taken drugs with current SpaceX and former Tesla board member Steve Jurvetson, according to the Journal.
