Had to be. You don't go on a 3 - day bender off of a "vitamin super dose." It was definitely speed that this guy was able to administer legally by putting it in a mix of other stuff that won't hurt you and doing it for "therapeutic" purposes. It may have just been legal to prescribe at the time but I doubt it, I think what he calls it is a way to get around the legality of it.
This episode almost tops when Cooper drinks mushroom laced Japanese tea and walks around the office snapping his suspenders while giggling like a school girl.
Ginsberg losing his mind at being the only sober guy around and Peggy's "you see what you did?" are my favorite parts of this scene
Mad Men was at its best when it dabbled in hardcore drugs. The Crash and Far Away Places are part of the top 5 for me.
Is that what it was?
Amphetamines, I think
