Studies and historical reports say that hitler was on a cocktail of drugs, including crystal meth. Hitlers cocktail of drugs include meth, barbiturate tranquilizers, morphine, bull semen, and other drugs. According to the report, hitlers doctor was theodor morell, a "doctor" who was know for his odd treatments and was considered by many to be a quack. This means that hitler ruled the third riech and directed ww2 while high on drugs.
Personally, I think this explains a lot about what hitler did and I also believe that this is the reason that he made many terrible choices toward the end of the war in terms of military decisions. So I guess you could say that meth started ww2 and ended it.
What studies were done to prove this? I agree that these report explain Hitler's values and behaviors while in power, but we all have seen a diagram how Hitler seems to be the most equipped to lead out of FDR and Winston Churchill because Winston was an alcoholic and FDR had marital affairs. I think it is safe to say that this recent report puts that theory to shame, Hitler was most impractical.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know bull semen was a drug! Hitler had many issues, but what is interesting to me is that Hitler functioned very well. He was one of the most pursuasive speakers in history, yet apparently he did it on drugs. It's very interesting. His drugs may have affected his decisions, but they didn't affect his comminication skills.
ReplyDeleteThe more chronic his drug abuse became, the more erratic his behavior and his communication skills deteriorated significantly, at the end of his life most accounts indicate that his directives, orders and messages both written an oral made little or no sense. Did his mental illness lead to more chronic drug abuse or did drug abuse lead to more severe mental illness issues?
