Seth Abramson, who writes about Elon Musk, has recently shared some worries about Musk’s mental health. He pointed out how this could affect Musk’s work in important fields and his influence in global affairs. In a series of posts on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter), Abramson expressed that Musk might be feeling a lot of pressure.
He mentioned Musk’s own acknowledgments of facing challenges with mental health, drug use, and the tough demands of running major projects.
Concerns Rise Over Musk’s Global Influence
Abramson pointed out how much power Elon Musk has as the head of Tesla, SpaceX, and other companies that are playing a big role in shaping electric vehicles, space travel, artificial intelligence, and social media. These areas really matter for progress around the world, which is why Elon Musk’s health and state of mind are important to everyone.

Abramson became even more concerned when he learned that Musk was about to take on an important government job—leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the Trump administration. This new role could make Musk’s influence even bigger and might affect stability both in the country and around the globe.
Online Behavior Sparks Leadership Debate
Some of the worries come from Musk’s recent activity online, where he has made some bold posts about world politics. For instance, he ran a debated poll asking if the U.S. should “liberate” the UK, claiming it was under a “tyrannical government.” While some view these actions as daring and out of the ordinary, they have led people to question how he makes decisions and the impact he has on political discussions worldwide.
The comments made by Abramson have led to different opinions. Some people agree with him, seeing the risks of giving too much power to someone who has personal struggles. Others, however, think Musk is a trailblazer who shakes things up and brings new ideas. Tosca Musk, Musk’s sister, has called Abramson’s remarks unfounded.
This discussion reveals a bigger matter: how personal health connects with public duty, especially for those in significant roles. As Musk keeps pushing into politics and key areas, these conversations are likely to continue, highlighting the need for openness and responsibility from those in the spotlight.
