Celebs Who Are Constantly In and Out of Rehab

Darren September 14, 2023

Charlie Sheen

Sheen is one of Hollywood’s most notorious bad boys. We could mock him but the reality is that his addictive personality ruined his life. Sex and controlled substances wreaked havoc on him and that’s why he’s been to rehab many times. His first visit was in 1990 but there have been many since (via Mirror).

Alcohol and drug abuse caused him to behave erratically and even violently toward his partners. Furthermore, he had a serious relapse in 2015 when he revealed that he was HIV positive. Many people sympathized with him but it also forced Sheen to say that he never knowingly transmitted the disease.

Selena Gomez

Gomez went to rehab for a different reason than most of the people on this list. She endured mental health problems after her lupus diagnosis. The former Disney star underwent chemotherapy before she went to Meadows in Arizona (via Page Six).

But Gomez also dealt with accusations that she was a drug addict or alcoholic. She reacted angrily to this because she didn’t appreciate the media’s attempt to damage her reputation. It was also wrong to stigmatize these issues when many people deal with them every day.

Robert Downey Jr.

These days, Downey Jr. is one of Hollywood’s biggest stars and a box office giant. But this wasn’t always the case because he spent time in and out of rehab and jail. He had a bad upbringing because his father introduced him to drugs when he was just six years old (via Decider).

This unsurprisingly had a terrible impact on his life. He became one of Hollywood’s bad boys before he made the brave decision to turn sober. This changed his career because it also made it easier for production companies to insure him. The stability helped him become the legend that he is now.

Lindsay Lohan

Lohan once told Oprah Winfrey that she used cocaine 10 to 15 times per day. It’s no wonder that she’s been to rehab more than almost everybody else on this list. She’s received multiple court orders and also checked herself into different facilities to deal with her addiction.

However, Lohan proved that rehab isn’t a miracle cure. She rejected it several times because she thought it was a waste of time. This shows that patients, famous or not, must enter with an open mind and want to become better. Everyone knows about Lohan’s harrowing struggles with substance abuse and her attempt to make it back to stardom (via Daily Beast).
