When I was a young girl, I remember always wanting to be famous. Whether I was a rock star or an actress, I did not care. I just knew I wanted to be out in the lime light. That had changed since then, and not just because of the fact that I'm a lot shyer than I was when I was little. But because of the abuse I have seen those in the public eye go through.
Now I am in no way saying this whole Sheen controversy is not his fault. What I'm trying to say is what Sheen is going through is what I have seen a lot of actors, actresses and musicians go through over the years.
It seems like a lot of stars go over the edge when they're so-called "famous". I think this label makes it harder for people to function properly.
When someone is "famous" it's harder for him or her to make decisions and do mundane tasks that "infamous" people have no problem carrying through unnoticed.
This has to be one of the reasons as to why so many “famous” people turn to substance and alcohol abuse.
Of course, this is not the only reason, and I am not in any way an expert on the matter.
But I think that if being “famous” were not such a stressful job, things like this would not happen.
Sheen is an actor who has made some pretty horrible mistakes, and he definitely needs to start working toward cleaning up his act.
But what if all the attention he is receiving from all of the headlines that have been out there recently is making his situation worse?
I know if I were Sheen, I would not want everyone in the world knowing my business and the daily struggles I have.
I mean, I’d like to have a few close friends, whom knew what I was going through, so I’d have someone to lean on who’d support me.
But most of the feedback coming to Sheen is negative. Yes, this is a situation, which deserves negativity coming at it. However, how are we suppose to help someone who needs it, if we keep knocking him down.
Maybe all this cockiness Sheen is showing, is actually just a front for the pain he is actually going through.He could just need someone to pick him up, dust him off and support him through the darkness he is currently in.
