Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — who ran for president in the 2024 race, suspended his campaign, and later became nominated for Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services by President-elect Donald Trump — made his claims about heroin in a resurfaced June interview with the ‘Shawn Ryan Show,’ where he talked about his former substance abuse.

In the interview, RFK Jr. recalled his history of addiction and his eventual heroin use, claiming that using the drug as a student helped to improve his grades in school. The Democrat-turned-Independent said that drugs helped bolster his academic performance.

RFK Jr., 70, said, “I was at the bottom of my class. I started doing heroin, and I went to the top of my class. Suddenly I could sit still, and I could read and I could concentrate. I could listen to what people were saying. My mind was so restless and turbulent I could not sit still.” He added, “I did very, very poorly in school until I started doing narcotics. Then I went to the top of my class because my mind was so restless and turbulent and I could not sit still.”

During his June interview, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was arrested in 1983 for heroin possession, described his substance abuse as a “compulsion” that eventually “hollows out your whole life.” He said that his arrest was “the best thing that could have happened” because he eventually became sober. However, he admitted, “It worked for me. And if it still worked, I’d still be doing it.”

He also admitted that besides heroin, cocaine became one of his drugs of choice. Speaking on the difficulties of overcoming his addiction, RFK Jr. said, “The most demoralizing feature of that disease was my incapacity to keep contracts with myself.”

He added, “I would tell myself at 9:00 in the morning I am never going to do that again. I would believe it. I would mean it. At 4:00 in the afternoon, it was like I had no control over that person that I was going to be at 4.00, you know, when the addict would step into my head and take control.”

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), people who use heroin tend to feel a brief “rush” after consuming the drug, followed by a “drowsy” state where “mental function is clouded; heart function slows; and breathing is also severely slowed, sometimes enough to be life-threatening.” The NIDA also claims that slowed breathing can also lead to permanent brain damage.
