After starting what will go down in Hollywood history as the most highly publicized meltdown of all time, Charlie Sheen is finally admitting to his problems and reaching out for help.

In the latest issue of Life & Style, the actor admits that his life has taken a sharp decline in recent months and that, despite adamant declarations that he's "winning," his life has fallen off course.

"I'm really starting to lose my mind," says Sheen. "I'm ready to call anyone to help."

Sheen, who recently lost his job on 'Two and a Half Men,' in addition to custody of his twin sons, Bob and Max, to estranged wife Brooke Mueller, now realizes that his lifestyle of excess has become unmanageable.
"I"m really trying to contain myself right now," says Sheen. "My lawyer wants to come over to my house and take the bullets out of my gun."

Friends are increasingly concerned about the actor's well-being, particularly since his children were removed from his home.

"It's crazy over here at the house," says a friend who was with Sheen when he learned he had been fired from his CBS show. "Charlie's losing it. He's really mad about the show, and dealing with the kids and Brooke is getting to be too much. Charlie is a ticking time bomb, and we all fear he could do something drastic like committing suicide or falling back on hard drugs."

The actor says his main priority is regaining custody of his sons, telling Life & Style, "I'll do anything to get them back. Now I don't give a f**k about the show or about anything [else]."

A source close to Sheen says that time is of the essence when it comes to getting Charlie's life back on track. "Anything could happen at any minute," says the source. "He's a danger to himself -- a really big danger."

It's Life & Style -- I take what they report with a grain of salt -- next to Star and InTouch, I don't put much faith into what L&S reports (altho they have fantastic fashion-related pics!!;))

Celebrity news is getting pretty grim these days, especially with this nut making every front page of every newspaper and magazine and headlining every news story, including our own local news. I can't run far away enough from hearing about this idiot.

You know Firefox has an add-on filter to block anything related to Charlie Sheen, Tiger Blood, etc -- I can't remember where I saw that, but it's amazing how long this has gone on and how far it's gone

I was pulling so hard for him. Sadly it doesn't surprise me. He almost made it. Thats the problem with junkies. They get clean and stay clean for a long time then if they relapse, they tend to use the same amount of the drug they used to use before but now their cleaned up bodies cannot handle the old dose. He was so tortured. I hope now he is at peace. This was so heartbreaking.

I know...and then when he showed up near the end of the last Celeb Rehab to tell the others about his sobriety...I really thought he was doing well.

Not to sound callous or morbid, but I am curious as to what the path of events were that brought him there. Sad.

his trigger could have been anything. even boredom. we may never know.

its not unusual for an addict to say to themselves, "I'm gonna use one more time, just this once and then be sober again tomorrow..."its so risky and too often deadly.

Charlie needs everyone to turn off the microphones and cameras, but that won't happen.

Re Mike Starr--Relapse is part of the disease. I've known people who stop and never use/drink again, but most will relapse and hopefully get clean and sober again. As shoo said, the littlest thing can cause a relapse. Usually before a relapse the addict/alcoholic has drifted away from his or her program of sobriety--all the things they were doing to support a new way of thinking and behaving. They tell you to leave your using *friends*, stay out of places where drugs and alcohol are used (or casinos for gambling addicts), go to meetings, have a sponsor, work to clean up the wreckage of the past. Not everyone does all those things or they start, then slide back to their former habits thinking they know how to control it now. They tell themselves: I'll only use once. I'll only have 2 beers. I'll only buy a couple lotto tickets. They believe they are once again in control, but they aren't! The disease controls them. It's a disease for life. You're never cured, but you can manage it.

Charlie's ego is such a stumbling block. He believes he's too smart to be in AA or NA or any other recovery program. Whether or not he also has a mental illness, plenty of dual-diagnosis addicts manage to stay sober and live responsible lives.

Jon Cryer may be the only one who can hold his composure against the insane warlock that is Mr. Charlie Sheen. But he's got the support of fellow Two and a Half Men crew members.

Our solid sources, who've told us before how pissed they are about this whole situation, are still peeved.

"We're [still] furious," quips a heated crew member. "We have been for a long time—and not just about [Cryer]."

Uh-oh, Charlie. You've got some more trolls on you hands:

"We have been screwed over by Charlie Sheen, monetarily and professionally," continues our heated source. "It's not just about disrespecting Jon. He disrespects everybody."

Color us not surprised!

Turns out, this crew was ticked off at Charlie's antics long before Sheen's Korner.

Says our insider: "He should have been fired a long time ago. Why wasn't he? Answer me that."

All of this is a far cry from the tune uttered by costar Holland Taylor, who said Charlie was always "cordial and polite with all of his cast and crew."

So why the mixed reactions?

Could it be because the hard working crew is now strapped for cash, while the ever-polite Charlie is a walking cash machine?

Now that the hatred between Charlie and the "trolls" is nearly palpable, maybe this crew had a better idea about what should have been done.

Calling all warlocks to comment.

When DD was little I gave her a whole heap of them I got at garage sales and swap meets, some new ones too. they all had little combs, clothes, etc....I washed and disinfected them all....she loved them.

On the topic of trolls...this is interesting http://trollmother.com/index.php/trollhistory.

Actually the physical description sounds like what Charlie has become.

"Trolls are described as being of any size, great or small, and of having one characteristic in common, they are very ugly, with small, beady eyes and large, bumpy noses. Their appearance is usually on the sloppy side with bits and pieces of last week's meals stuck to their stringy hair and clothes. Their ears are mostly large and floppy and dirty enough to grow rutabagas in!! They are also not too careful about brushing their snaggley teeth, which is not very obvious as they do not smile that much anyhow. (Maybe they don't brush them because their mouths are so very large.) They are also ugly and sloppy in their behavior, which is of more importance than their appearance."
