High Hitler-- High Bush

Quote

Just watched a History Channel documentary, High Hitler, concerning Hitler's addictions and resulting bad and unyielding decisions especially concerning the demise of the German military machine with impossible campaigns such as in Stalingrad.

All the while I thought of Bush. It goes like this:

[link to www.preventragedy.com]
Book Review: Adolf Hitler was variously diagnosed as bipolar, schizophrenic and paranoid schizophrenic. He was also diagnosed as having had Parkinson’s disease, which Yasir Arafat reportedly suffered from. Yet Hitler had none of these disorders: he was an amphetamine and barbiturate addict.

This marvelous little book, which reads like a medical mystery novel, slowly dismantles every other explanation for Hitler’s increasingly reckless behavior. We can conjecture that he may have triggered barbiturate addiction long before amphetamine addiction. However, the reader is left with no doubt that injections given to him by the doctor without whom he “could not live,” Dr. Morell, included large quantities of amphetamine, beginning by 1937. (Because Hitler can be seen moving his hands back and forth on his upper legs in a way consistent with amphetamine use, called “stereotypical behavior,” in 1936 Olympic Games videos, use likely began a bit earlier.)

The authors offer numerous clues to addiction. When injections, widely believed to be multi-vitamins “specially compounded for the Fuhrer,” ceased on occasion, Hitler experienced severe depression, a common symptom among newly abstinent amphetamine or cocaine addicts. He engaged in all-night monologues with an endless repetition of stories, along with increasingly disorganized thinking and confused syntax. The latter would not be expected of someone considered to have been a supreme orator. His mood swings became more volatile, paranoia increased (a common side effect of amphetamine addiction) and, while early on he accepted blame for tactical errors, he developed a tendency to project blame onto others.

Intravenous injections of the “special compound” increased from one to as many as five daily. While intravenous amphetamine use has the same effect as injecting cocaine, it is much longer lasting: the half-life of amphetamines is twelve times longer. He took barbiturates every night during WW2, no doubt needed to offset the effect of amphetamines to allow for sleep. Hitler also used narcotics from 1938 onward, in particular, Eukodal, an early version of Percodan. A potent mix of drugs such as this has adverse effects on a person’s personality, thinking, perceptions and behaviors.

Over-confidence and intoxication with his own early successes, common to early-stage addiction, fuelled a propensity to risk-taking and impulsive behaviors. As his use progressed during WW2 he experienced tremors, often attributed to Parkinson’s disease. However, heavy amphetamine use mimics Parkinson’s, probably because the neurotransmitter dopamine is affected by both. A stereotypical behavior very common to amphetamine addicts, an incessant scratching (the description offered by amphetamine addicts is “bugs are crawling under their skin”), began by 1943.

Were there any reports of hitler's body having needle marks when they found him? Those old needles were kinda big, so he would have some major skin infections if he had 5 injections a day for years.

I think that Bush did not have enough time in sobriety whether or not he began using again. It takes years to get back on keel. I know this as a fact.

Mix power with addiction and we have an almost universal disaster, lost of many lives, loss of a country.

Furthermore people close by, maybe even a whole population can share in the addiction as co-addicts whether they use or not, the most tell-tale indicator:

DENIAL!

His doctor, Theodor (Theo) Gilbert Morell, gave him a daily injections.

"Intravenous injections of the “special compound” increased from one to as many as five daily..."

Substances given to Hitler
[link to en.wikipedia.org]
Morell kept a medical diary of the drugs, tonics, vitamins and other substances he administered to Hitler, usually by either injection or in pill form. Most were commercial preparations, some were his own. Since some of these compounds are considered toxic, many historians have speculated Morell may have accidentally contributed to Hitler's poor health. This fragmentary list of representative ingredients would have seemed somewhat less shocking during the 1940s:

* Potassium bromide
* Nux Vomica (a form of strychnine)
* Atropine
* Sodium barbitone
* Oxedrine Tartrate
* Chamomile
* Testosterone
* Prophenazone
* Caffeine
* Belladonna
* E. coli
* Dihydroxycodeine
* Sulphonamide
* Cocaine (via eye drops)
* Enzymes
* Vitamins
* Amphetamines
* Methamphetamine
* Proteins and lipids derived from animal tissues and fats

The way he runs the country, I would assume he's still high. Only in America is a "former" drug addict and alcoholic able to be president. Explains a lot.
