Right Now, Charlie Sheen's latest interview on TLC
 
I am watching it and I am appalled at how 'ill' he looks. The weight loss, the skin color, and listening to his words, I do believe, J M H O, that there is 'mental illness' along with his addiction.

He is digging his hole deeper. There but for the Grace of HP go I.

At this point, I hope the Family Court Judge that hears his 'custody case' sees this interview.

I will continue to send prayers out for his parents and for him and his family and children.

The man needs help, but obviously does not want it yet.

So sad. So so very sad.

Love and hugs,

I am not watching it, but I agree, he is a very sick man. He seems to enjoy it though.

Google Charlie Sheen cooking show. I have to admit that crazy guy is hilarious.

He is probably on a long run of mania and I don't see how it can last for much longer.

Tonight I saw a piece on the Bio channel

One comment that realy struck a cord with me
someone stated
"Prolonged heavy use of crack fries your brain"

That sums up what I think has happened to him.

Yes..I am aware he is now useing the net to air his situation
Sad indeed to know he is not at all remorseful.

Prayers for him and all who love this man.

I didn't see this, but i'm just so sick of him...he does everything he can for attention without any thoughts for his 5 children and the affect it will have on them.

His "tour" dates are sold out...but the content will be his garbage ranting and raving.

it's a shame he did not do good with all his $$. I read about other actors who are active with charities and humanatarian efforts...he just sticks his $$ up his nose and blows it on superficial crap.

i noticed too how much his face has sunken and aged...he was a handsome man at one time, now he looks the part of an old addict....or maybe it is the constant chain smoking.

I think that Sheen has been active in supporting AIDS related charities for over 20 years. I have also read a dollar from every ticket from this new tour will go to the Japan Earthquake fund.

God has assigned him this role at this time for some reason, maybe his pain is helping someone. How do I know?

"There but for the Grace of God go I", indeed.

I was an attention ***** for a period of time during my drinking too, it is just that nobody cared. Praying for you as well as all of the other sick and suffering Charlie.

yes, he has an older daughter from his first marriage? that just married herself earlier this year...i think she is mid 20's.

Fair enough, maybe just to save me because when I see him I know that I have been in a similar hell and never want to go back there again. But I am just one drink away from that or worse.

As far as his kids... the last people I was thinking of how much I was hurting while drinking were my family.

Yeah, how'd you like to turn on the TV every day or start up the computer and see your dad making an ass of himself at every turn?

I don't care how much his tour benefits Japan. Heck, I'd make a donation NOT to listen to him on tour.

I can't bear to watch or listen to him. I feel embarrassed for him and sad for everyone involved in this train-wreck, including his father.

He is, indeed, digging himself a grave-sized hole.

Fandy 03-21-2011 07:13 AM

The NY Post reports today that the Head of CBS is in talks to bring him back to the TV show....rewarding his behavior.

Hold the line, Charlie !!!!
 
Hold the line, Charlie Sheen! Beat them all back!

Do not let them force you into submission ("treatment"). If you want something done right, do it yourself.

You are free to continue destroying yourself with drugs, Charlie Sheen, and free to face the probable disastrous consequences.

But, wouldn't it be absolutely great if you not only got your old job back, but also quit for good, and forced everyone to eat their words?

You can quit, Charlie, and you can quit for good. Be a real winner.

Yawn. So over it. Wait. Not right. Never into it, so nothing to be over. They still giving him airtime? You still watching? Hmm.

CarolD 03-21-2011 09:12 AM

is doing or not doing.....
