Charlie Sheen Doesn't Need Treatment, He Needs Recovery
Charlie Sheen Will Go To Prison
Charlie Sheen will go to prison if he doesn’t find recovery from his drug addiction and alcoholism. In fact, he could be charged with everything from indecent exposure to the unlawful restraint of Capri Anderson. I know this from experience. I had my crazy nights. One such night I was taken from my hotel room at the Palm Beach Breakers Hotel to the hospital, by stretcher, and returned. A couple hours later the Palm Beach Hotel manager and Palm Beach Police asked me to leave—my guess is so I wouldn’t die in the hotel. Events like these, and there were many of them, didn’t push me towards recovery. Rather, they made me continue to believe that I was bulletproof. My thinking was that if I went on a binge, I didn’t die, didn’t end up in jail (at least for very long), I could do it all over again without any consequences. I went from a top, high profile corporate executive to being unemployable, without my family, without my home, and even that didn’t stop me. I didn’t stop until I reached my bottom of landing in prison. Charlie Sheen can go the same route as I did. He is a high-profile celebrity, his money and popularity, and the fact that he keeps getting out of all of his scrapes, will continue to tell him that he can use drugs and alcohol with impunity. For people like Charlie and myself, the party ended long ago. The only companionship he appears to be able to get is paid escorts and hookers, and even they don’t want to be around him. And like with Capri Anderson, end up locking themselves in bathrooms fearing for their lives. A 5-day cocaine binge is about as close to hell as you can get on this planet. Charlie Sheen doesn’t need treatment, he needs recovery.
