Martin Sheen had psychotic episodes!

Martin Sheen admits he’s had “psychotic episodes” which is why he can understand “hell” son Charlie Sheen is going through.

Sheen, 70, elieves that Charlie, despite being 45, is still “emotionally” a child.

“Because when you’re addicted, you don’t grow emotionally. So. when you get clean and sober you’re starting at the moment you started using drugs or alcohol,” Charlie said.

“You’re emotionally crippled.

“I know what hell he’s living in. I’ve had psychotic episodes in public. One of them was on camera the opening scene of “Apocalypse Now.” … I know what Charlie is going through. And when you do something like that, that is out of control, that’s the most difficult thing. You have to have courage.

“Faith can help all of us. Addiction is the dark side. It’s a reflection of despair. And it’s fed by all the other negativity.”
