Charlie Sheen Says He Was in 'Denial' About Meltdown: Genuine or Just Wants Press?

It's going to be pretty tough for audiences to distance Charlie Sheen's 2011 meltdown from his new series, "Anger Management," but he's going to have to try. The studio's got a lot of money riding on that show. So Sheen is doing a little bit of damage control by getting candid about what he calls a "psychotic break." Watch the video below for some classic excuses.



Sheen told Playboy, "I started to unravel. I finally just said things I had always been thinking. But in the middle of a psychotic break ... It was surreal. And it never occurred to me where this was going to end up or how it was going to be perceived ... How do you go from making Oliver Stone movies to being in a feud with warlocks?" Do you think Sheen's embarrassment over his meltdown is genuine -- or is he just looking for press?

    I believe his remorse is genuine. I also believe it's timed to promote his new show.

    He genuinely wants a good press just like the anti-white Establishment does when it forces mass immigration and "assimilation" on All white countries and Only white countries which is genocide but they pretend it`s just "diversity".Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.

    I watch white people being ground into the dust to keep a criminal anti-white regime in power.

    They impose genocide on us and deny us free speech to oppose it.

    The Obama years taught me:Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.

    notice how he has to apologize to the Sheeple by saying that his 'psycholtic breakdown' = him tellling what he was always thinking, ie THE TRUTH. but it's well known that Sheeple can't handle the truth, the can't handle.. sorry ppl, cover your eyeballs... HONESTY.... so... yeah... I think he's being genuine while picking his words very carefully to stay honest. question to the Sheeple: did you ever pick up on the actual point of any of his... 'psychotic breaks' ??? (ie break from pointlessly maintaining this stupid lie you all like to call reality)? QUICK, WHAT WAS HIS POINT? exactly. you were too busy buying the media's spin that his truth spilling made him 'psychotic' ... that you never even looked up the full bit of what he was saying and what the hell was his point. so look it up and shut up until you do!

    I am sure he really meant it. Hind sight is 20/20. I don't think he will ever be as successful as he was with 21/2 Men and 2 1/2 Men will never be as good as it was when Charlie was there. The girl in the show who was a guest on WENDY show today has a very annoying high pitched voice. he is looking skinny, tired and worn out or o l d. He resembles Pinochio in this ph0to.

    I'm purely guessing here. I said genuine because I can't imagine anybody actually wanting to be what he appeared to be during that "meltdown" of his.

    I don't wish Sheen any ill will or anything like that. I am just totally disgusted with anyone, him included, who blatantly uses illegal substances and gets away with it and even shows up in public evidencing proof of what he's been up to, and he's never served prison time like the guy next door in my neighborhood would in the same situation.

    Again, not that I'm wishing Sheen were in prison, I'm just wishing people in this country of mine would wake up and stop with the Me, Me, Me attitude, the "I'll do whatever I want to, whenever I want to" message that continually gets trumpeted with no legitimate, persuasive arguments to the contrary whatsoever.

    I thought Sheen's 'performances" during that meltdown were embarrassing and shameful. What a waste. He is a good actor and, believe it or not, I actually love the ads he's doing for that "Anger Management" program. I like it when people laugh at themselves. But I just don't like the overall messaging that Sheen and other high-profile people send out to the rest of us that going around breaking laws and acting like horses patoots is really neat and, Hey, come join us for ...

Right. Aren't any for them, that's for sure.\

    But, alas, Sheen and the rest of Hollywood are fulfilling a purpose. They have a job to do, and that is to entertain the rest of us. And he does a good job, far as I am concerned. I just wish he'd clean up his act, stop breaking the law and messing with illegal substances, and maybe even attempt to undo some of the harm his glorification of his lifestyle has undoubtedly done to lots of star-struck youths.

    Meanwhile, I'll watch "Anger Management" and hope I can get into the character Sheen is supposed to be playing and hope he does a good job. But if he screws up one more time, that'll be the last time I bother watching him. As he says, this is his 24th chance. (I like the humor behind that.) So he's run out of freebies. LOL

    I have not heard too many but from others I have heard him make in the past, he likes to jerk everyones chain so as long as people love to be "shocked" and talk about him, he will continue the show.

    He seems to have completely cleaned up. What we witnessed was what happens when you consistently do drugs and just suddenly stop, that is one reason many people check into rehabs and drop off of the face of the planet for a while. Instead of using a rehab he fueled himself by using our support and shared his experience with us. I never really cared about Sheen until his meltdown. The whole time I knew exactly what was happening to him, and even went to his show where he let it all hang out for everyone to see. I'm glad I could be there.

    Kinda hard to tell. Either his brain is completely fried, or he's just putting on an act--like Joaquin Phoenix in that mockumentary.

    He may have gotten to far into the character of Charlie Harper,but all in all not stupid & his replacment is making a name for himself so he knows he will not be going back to MEN,so he wants people to watch his NEW show,he is starting over,there's room for both if both are entertaining.

    People on cocaine lose all inhibitions, particularly the more they take. I watched his bad behavior esclate over the weeks, and he really was not in control of himself. Everything looks different once they dry out! I think it's genuine.

    Craziest thing he's said so far. Maybe if there wasn't such a stigma on mental illnesses he'd seek some help instead of trying to cover his tracks with lies. Hernia from laughing at Dave Chappelle...as if.

    Charlie can't stand being out of the limelight. He is an egocentric bum. He has no concern for his children, ex wives or anyone but his addictions. he is one sick, sick man. A shame because once upon a time, I think he had talent. Now he just a burn out to me. I can't stomach him.

    Sure.. He's being genuine.. Addicts are ALWAYS genuine.. They mean what they say.. They meant what they said yesterday and they'll mean what they're gonna say tomorrow..

    The PROBLEM is that WHAT they say rarely survives beyond the moment that they say it..

    Can it happen??

    LOOK at Robert Downey Jr.. It seems to work occasionally.. ALL we can do for Sheen is HOPE..

    I think you begin to see a lot clearer when you get off the drugs you "weren't" using. I think they are genuine though, he realizes now how much he screwed things up (and now we're stuck with Ashton Kutcher in 2.5 men that I've stopped watching). I look forward to anger management, I just wish it wasn't on Thursdays competing with the USA shows that will take precedence.
