Looking at all those tech people going nuts I really wonder if it might be finasteride or minoxidil having side effects we don't know yet.

Sure, people got the brain eating bug in the past, too, but it seems nowadays it is much more common.

For Musk, it's reportedly pretty well-known drugs: Ketamine, LSD, magic mushrooms.

Spiegel (~German equivalent of Time magazine) article about it https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unternehmen/elon-musk-soll...

(Actually, LSD isn't in the article, sorry. But it's not that different from the mushrooms anyway.)

Just an anecdote but i'll put it here: A friend of mine insisted that her ex was slowly driven somewhat mad by finasteride, not in the typical crazy ex way, but obsessive somewhat delusional thoughts and moods, like he was getting stuck in a loop over some idea.

She later dated another guy who was taking it for a very long time, and said he had the same type of delusional quirks.
