The chairman of the psychology department at Columbia University admitted to doing heroin recreationally in a newly released book, New York Post reports.

Carl Hart, a 54-year-old father of three, says he has snorted small amounts of heroin on occasion in his book "Drug Use for Grown-ups: Chasing Liberty in the Land of Fear."

While Hart has admitted to experiencing some withdrawal symptoms after using heroin, according to him, it is worth the experience.

"There aren’t many things in life that I enjoy more than a few lines by the fireplace at the end of the day," Hart wrote, claiming that heroin makes him feel "refreshed."

"Like vacation, sex and the arts, heroin is one of the tools that I use to maintain my work-life balance," he continued.

"[The] demonization of drug use – not drugs themselves – [has] been a tremendous scourge on America, not least in reinforcing this country’s enduring structural racism."

Hart made some recommendations on how to use it though, telling his audience that mixing alcohol with heroin is a bad idea as it "increases the likelihood of respiratory depression and death."

Hart also admitted to doing meth, MDMA, and a form of bath salts.

Medical professionals are skeptical about Hart's approval of heroin. The drug is one of the biggest killers in the United States, being involved in the deaths of almost 15,000 Americans in 2018.

Hart agrees, however, that "drug use is not for everybody."
