New York Post ^ | March 08, 2011 | PoST WIRE SERVICES

Posted on 03/08/2011 9:51:45 AM PST by RobinMasters

A gaunt-looking, chain-smoking Charlie Sheen posted an online rant where he announced he wants to publish a new book called "Apocalypse Me."

Wearing a Yankee sweatshirt, a disheveled Sheen puffed on cigarettes and chugged from a bottle as he filmed himself talking to a colleague on speakerphone.

My brother was a gigolo during his younger manhood. He’d scam old ladies in South Florida for money, place to live, etc. He had great powers of persuasion, a silver tongue full of sad stories, none of which were true and a personality that was affable and outgoing as long as things went ‘his way’. He could turn from nice to horrible in a split second..............

He doesn’t have to worry about finding a job. Northwestern University offered him the position of Chairman of their sex-studies program.

Amy Winehouse could do narration on the series.

So sad, really sad. His father helped me personally once, and though I don’t like his Dad’s politics, I always respected him for doing something from his heart for me when no one was looking, and my heart breaks for anyone who loves this sick, sick Charlie.

For the person who asked which comes first, the drugs or the bipolar, it’s the bipolar. It makes them want to self-medicate. MANY MANY sufferers of bipolar do take drugs or have problems with alcohol. My SIL had it and died too young two years ago.

He needs someone to help him gain control, but he is so rich and famous, and shuts out those who wish to get him help, that all they can do is sit, wring their hands, and pray something happens to get him into a 72-hour observation. And of course pray that what happens doesn’t kill him first.

I think his being fired may help him in the long run. Paying a crazy man millions doesn’t get him well. It’s sad because his stream of consciousness shows a smart brain, albeit one that is completely disconnected from reality now.

Someone in his family (Martin’s the President after all) ought to take him to Dr. Daniel Amen’s clinic for some practical physical advice, and to a Christian psychiatrist, and encourage him to go to church.

Just read the first 50 very thoughtful comments on this thread.

The Sheen phenomena is simply reality and fantasy (TV show) colliding. It’s not hard to blend the TV show and Sheen’s collapse as a package.

Watching one filthy rich, self-indulgent spoiled brat’s fall from grace is also a form of escapism in these tumultuous and depressing times.

We are helpless to cure Charlie Sheen and we are equally helpless in solving the other disease that affects our Nation.

Pray for both of them.

I think his rant against things he has been exposed to in AA is also a rant against his father.

Sometimes, a drug and/or alcohol addict who has dried out numerous times becomes inoculated to all of the language and sensibility of recovery in general. The world of addition and recovery becomes a game they play and the recovery world becomes as bizarre to them as the addicted world.

Generally they turn away from recovery repeatedly at that point and spiral into the ground like an aircraft with all horizon reference lost.

Poor Charlie doesn't realize that the million followers he's achieved could just have easily been reached by William Shatner having a slow-motion psychotic breakdown on Boston Legal, or by any other star publicly melting down.

His "social media strategy" is to go stark, raving mad in front of an audience. That isn't a sustainable strategy.

He's got perhaps one more peak event left in his arsenal.

And that would be a hostage situation, followed by live Twitter video of him being taken out by a SWAT sniper.

I don't think any would-be interns want responsibility for that on their resumes. It isn't a "winner".

I think Charlie is trying to kill himself. I hope someone gets him into a hospital.

He needs to go to that haven of all Has beens—Haiti, Do some good work with the starving people of that sad land. Maybe make a movie with other fallen stars—like Mel Gibson. I even have a script—Zombie Snakes—its about snakes that bite zombies and become —well—zombie snakes. The hero gives his life to save an orphanage by blowing up all the snakes. Hire some local actors,—a local production could work with the right director. Have Lion’s Gate release it. Just an idea.
