Columbia professor: I do heroin regularly for ‘work-life balance’

Carl Hart is a Columbia University professor of psychology and neuroscience. He chairs the psych department and has a fondness for heroin – not only as a subject of scholarly pursuit but also as a substance for personal use.

At 54, the married father of three has snorted small amounts of heroin for as many as 10 days in a row and enjoyed it mightily – even if, as he recalls in his new book “Drug Use for Grown-ups: Chasing Liberty in the Land of Fear” (Penguin Press), he’s experienced mild withdrawal symptoms “12 to 16 hours after the last dose.”

But, as Hart sees it, the discomfort is a worthwhile trade-off.

“There aren’t many things in life that I enjoy more than a few lines by the fireplace at the end of the day,” he writes, pointing out that the experience leaves him “refreshed” and “prepared to face another day.”

Hart told Insider that he hopes to see President Biden work toward federal regulation and licensing of the use of substances that are often described as societal menaces.

  1. Right, you can look at this addict and tell he is a messed up troop. Typical nut job, I would put money on it, that he is a liberal damorat. Probably supports us paying him because he heard there had been slaves, before his own party started canceling history. Bet also that he fathered three (or more), but isn’t a father.
