Charlie has struggled with drug abuse for a while. On May 20, 1998, he injected himself with cocaine, accidentally giving himself an overdose.

On January 28, 2011, Sheen began undergoing a substance rehabilitation program in his home and CBS announced that Two and a Half Men would go into hiatus. The network subsequently announced that the season then underway and due to film its last four episodes was canceled after Sheen made offensive comments about the creator and lead writer of Two and a Half Men, Chuck Lorre, on the February 24 edition of a radio broadcast hosted by Alex Jones.
