The famous actor of hit shows like Two and a Half Men, Charlie Sheen from time to time has taken us on an eventful journey. What in the world is up with Charlie Sheen?

The Road to Recovery and Back Into Acting

After years of very-public struggles and volatile behavior, Charlie Sheen took a step back on May 20 from the spotlight to make him sobriety his "priority." He's spent the last six years focusing on his sobriety, raising 14-year-old twins Max and Bob, and living a mostly quiet life out of the spotlight.

In a publication-exclusive interview with People, Sheen confirmed that he is sober and happyand prepared to re-enter the acting world. He next will be seen in an arc as himself on two episodes of Chuck Lorre's Max sports gambling dramedy Bookie, starring Sebastian Maniscalco.

Sheen working with Chuck Lorre, the same showrunner who famously sacked him from "Two and a Half Men" in 2011 could be seen as something of a career milestone. Despite the turbulent history between them, Lorre wanted to extend an olive branch to Sheen and be reminded of all that good work they did together. Sheen said he is excited to be returning his career as an actor and that he was well rested, ready for work, refering him selfo s hard working ofertor.

Notes from the Trenches And Healing

Opening up about his tumultuous years of drug and alcohol abuse, which the actor likened to a form of "possession" that turned him into "a monster," Sheen was nearly as divisive Tuesday at times while talking with Dr. Oz. Although he says that his "head still screams cok to me," remarkably enough Sheen is actually grateful for being in a position where, now more than ever, it seems as though it's entirely back on track and already rejoining the Chuck Lorre fold. He called the experience surreal and said he is prepared for whatever opportunities may present themself.

The reunion with Chuck Lorre and the fact that Sheen is returning to his profession proves a rite of passage in this man's life, promising me something akin growth will be given. This rise from the ashes is just as dramatic as his fall – a time of introspection, sobriety and recommitment to his career for Sheen.

Mike Mike Personal and Family Life

On the personal front as well Sheen has been open. Meanwhile, it was recently claimed that he is 'friendly' with his ex-wife Denise Richards for the first time in 15 years. This barest insight into his private life belies an increased gain in maturity and wisdom Sheen brings to relationships as he is re-wired from the scaffolding down.

Trouble His Daughter is Facing

Besides his journey, Sheen's daughter Sami Sheen stayed in the headlines after announcing her intention to be an OnlyFans Model. This led to a great deal of both pushback and debate surrounding the choices she made, including getting breast implants & constantly posting on Instagram.

Sami has come under, much public scrutiny since Denise Richards spoke out against her daughter and the choices she is making. It offers an insight into the way Sheen's life is complicated when his familial troubles are played out in public and he becomes a symbol of what can happen when personal choices become a matter for public debate.

A Story of Redemption and New Life

The last few years of Charlie Sheen have seen his reunion with sobriety and the reclaiming of a respected professional career. He went back to acting, resolved issues of his past and arguably did the same with Sunny; making amends for what had gone wrong in a fascinating exchange between two soulmates who have lived very different lives from one another. Though Sheen faced great odds, ultimately his story becomes one of transition: a struggle with adversity to growing into the shoes that were put in front of him and relishing new possibilities at home as well.

While his tale is still very much being written as he works to thread the needle of making things right with family, prioritizing personal happiness on a more fulfilling life path alongside professional success outside past struggles.
