Elon Musk’s transparency about combating mental health is being used as a hit
$Tesla(TSLA.US$ The article reported that even though Musk was prescribed the treatment by a doctor to fight depression, mainstream media headlines have attacked the CEO for what they are describing as “drug use,” not giving any sort of context about the drugs, their effectiveness, or even the fact that they are prescribed by a doctor.
Important point #1
Instead, several outlets are leaving out key details, and in a culture where headlines are becoming all that people read, it seems misleading, scummy, and extremely wrong to leave out the fact that ketamine is not being used recreationally. Medicine is obviously a case-by-case basis, but as someone who has battled both depression and anxiety for the duration of my 29 years on Earth, it is upsetting to see someone be attacked for using techniques that work for them. This is not a case of a person using recreational drugs to manage day-to-day stress. It is, in Musk’s words, “literally a prescription from a real doctor.”

People who have followed Tesla for basically any period of time know that the company is routinely under fire for things like recalls, car accidents, and other things. However, attacking the company CEO over his mental health battle and the techniques used to combat a mental health condition that is very widespread is a low blow.

Musk being transparent about his mental health and his strategies to combat it was a huge win, because many people look up to him. It is perfectly okay to not be okay, even when you’re one of the most innovative minds in modern history.
Comment: This issue is about a person combating mental illness but someone used it to attack Elon Musk and Tesla using a misleading headline. The purpose is obvious - to spread negative bias info. You can read his other anti-Tesla posts - red flag that he is confirmation bias about the stock. You can use the link below to read about the issue in detail but I have summarized 3 important points above.

ZnWCOP : Yesterday $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ and $Li Auto (LI.US)$ increased by 2.53% and 3.71% respectively while $NIO Inc (NIO.US)$ dropped 1.73% hit close to 5 USD. The above news has no effect on Tesla stock and other EV stock like Li Auto. There were other reasons for the Nio share price drop.
S Punt : At least he says it. Some try to hide or evade the issue.
FaqnDeath99 : Agreed, they seem to be making a lot of noise on a subject that most people don’t know enough about. Perhaps he is resistant to common depression drugs, like myself, and requires outside the box approaches. Perhaps get a doctors opinion in the field or like most people, let other peoples medical issues stay their issues and not inject judgement on others for one reason or another. Didn’t realize how strongly I felt about this until you posted this thought, thank you
