Were Nazi soldiers high? I believe is the question, and yes there is quite a lot of documented information out there that would say absolutely, they were very high.


Norman Ohler did a recent AMA here on the very topic, however you'll find he goes into even greater detail in his newly published, bestselling book; BLITZED: Drugs in the Third Reich

Hope this helps to answer your question.

Read Blitzed

He definitely sounded like Hitler's doctor.

Yes, I think meth was basically the only drug he wasn't addicted to by the end of the war. I can't remember the full list of drugs his personal doctor was giving him, but when they ran out of drugs, near the end, he was totally unable to function.

Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich is a popular book that explores the rise of amphetamine in Nazi Germany. Not sure if there's a Swedish translation available since it came out only 2 years ago
