“I notice it in conversations with my girlfriends or friends, not remembering something that I should be able to remember that happened a couple of days ago. In a bid to combat the effects of CTE , Paul has been making use of psychedelic drugs. He said: “I’ve talked to tons and tons of people about it and there’s new research and science to combat against it, things like psychedelics and toad.”
