yeah but only because his leg didn’t hurt at all, so he wasn’t miserable. Non-miserable House didn’t make others miserable as much, which in his mind was bad because him being an ass made others better doctors. and since nothing mattered more than saving the puzzle, he didn’t want less than the best from his team
so House in fact thought being nice made him dumber
Yes, for the leg pain initially. Although, I thought for sure either he or one of his staff experimented with other drugs, including stimulants, for various reasons.
I might just be confusing him with Sherlock Holmes, who was notorious for cocaine addiction.
Well for one episode he did try some risky drug that eliminated his pain completely, but he ended up stopping the use because it was extremely dangerous.
Last time I did ket I found myself lying on the front lawn of an LA suburban family home, in the rain, watching Mel Gibson choke out Gary Busey, but I definitely was not anymore intelligent from that encounter.
Honestly, one of the worst things House did to the modern zeitgeist was to convince techbros that shoving ket up your nose 24/7 will make you smarter.
It was vicodin
It didn’t make him smarter, it allowed him to think about something else besides the pain.
As far as I know, that’s 99% the reason why people use drugs.
Then there are those of us who are mostly taking drugs to calm down our immune system when god’s green creatures are mating.
I take clown tranquilizers!
Sounds more fun than my dumb antihistamines.
Wasn’t it vicodin abuse? All I remember them saying about ketamine was House saying it was a lame drug for being heroin without the high.
At some point he starts injecting ketamine for his leg
It didn’t make him smarter.
If I recall correctly, he was afraid it was making him dumber.

I think at the end of s2 or start of s3 (or s1 and s2) he had a spinal injection of Ketamine that removed his pain, but it eventually came back.

I think the lady that had the degenerative disease did party drugs as she grappled with her diagnosis. I don’t remember names.
lmao very fitting because she was referred to as “13” for most of the show, i think her real name was Remy? she had Huntingtons
That’s right! And lol, thanks for reminding me what she was called, that’s funny!

Man everyone’s having fun on drugs, meanwhile I just sit there unable to figure out whether I have my glasses on
Thanks for the belly laugh
