Winning is about the excitment of the Torpedoes of Truth Tour and the goal of Charlie's return to 2 1/2 Men. The clapping and tapping is the enthusiasm for Charlie, much of it centered on his personal recreation and his sitcom. My personal interest is in his advocacy for discovery of the cause and cure of addictions and bipolar illness. Charlie's asked some great questions such as how can one be given the diagnosis while having few or none of the symptoms and he has questioned the mass-prescribing of medications not everyone needs. Bipolar illness is a biological/metabolic/genetic condition and a prescription drug can cause an episode, which can last long after the drug shows on a laboratory test. However, the person's genetic make-up is never studied to find out the true cause of what went wrong - they are just branded for life. Warner Bros. Are motherfuckers for firing Charlie Sheen after he admitted having received a bipolar diagnosis and exhibited manic hyperalert behavior. The disrespect of Warner Bros. ' executives, the substance abuse, and womanizing had existed for some time. They didn't issue the termination letter until right after the 20/20 interview, sending the message that a known bipolar employee at any level must go at any cost! They argued that he was so sick that notice was waived. At the same time, they held him responsible for everything he said including jokes and fantasies alluding to being "intergalactic." Unfortunately, Warner Bros. Are not the only employers with an unlimited budget for getting rid of mentally ill employess. If one ever appears mentally ill at work, they should be ready to endure disrespect, prejudice, or any form of evil the employer can come up with to dispose of their "bitch ass". Warner Bros. Could have let Charlie stay on 2 1/2 Men where the fans could possibly see that such episodes of "mania" can be rare and far between or even prevented in advance. When bipolar illness gets this level of publicity, it is almost always in connection with a tragedy. The discussions become centered on the plight of the families and victims and the court system's failure to lock up the person with the illness. Here it was mostly funny quotes not at all threatening to hear from afar. We may have created a situation where more diagnosed people felt comfortable sharing their experiences. Charlie has a lot of good advice for his fans regarding a positive attitude, for example, and I hope he will also make it a "winning is the only thing" goal towards the cure of addictions and bipolar illness.
