in #life7 years ago

Since 1933 drugs in Nazi Germany were banned.

Hitler was a complete teetotaler, didn't drink coffee, ate only vegetables until August 1941.

Soldiers were widely using Pervitin, meth-based pep pills. Thus, operation Blitzkrieg was founded on methamphetamine.

In 1941 Hitler felt sick and his personal physician gave him morphine. Since then, he became an addict.

Goebbels about Hitler, 'If one looks at him only fleetingly, one has the impression that he is in excellent physical condition. But this isn't in fact the case.'

Summer 1943, Hitler doesn't get enough high. He starts taking Eukodal, drug able to create a euphoric state significantly higher than that of heroin.

Hitler had sex with his wife, Eva Braun, between briefings. She was his junior by 19 years.

Hitler almost entirely lost his hearing in the summer of 1944. His physician gave him cocaine. Adolf liked it.

Fuhrer mever had a sober day between 41-44.

In the end of 1944 Hitler's body was all trembling and shaking, his doctor started giving him barbiturates.

Februaru 1945, Hitler is running out of drugs. Sugar is his last source of dopamine. He is losing his teeth, his brain is unable to operate anymore.

April 30, 1945, at about half past three Hitler perished.
