Charlie Sheen has turned over a new leaf and isn't crazy anymore. That's what he tells us in the latest issue of People magazine.

I'm going to give him a break. When I first saw what I can only describe as his psychotic break from reality ,I was genuinely concerned for his personal safety.

I mean no one wants to see another person self destruct, but it seems that's what was happening in a brief period of time.

We all have our disconnects at one point or another, because of personal issues, but his situation was played out so publicly that it was disturbing.

"I think I'm a different person than I was yesterday. Everything is a lot more mellow and focused and much more rooted in reality."

Sheen, 46, couldn't be more Zen about his new FX show, Anger Management, in which he will star and produce. He reports that casting is underway and that they will shoot 10 episodes in six weeks.

"I've been at this 30 years. It's nice to be in a situation where the people I'm working with are excited about my input. That wasn't the case for a long time," Sheen says.

Of late, Sheen says instead of sounding off on Twitter, "I've been spending a lot of time with the kids, a lot of time with the family and I'm getting back into work mode," adding that he is goddess-free these days. "I'm a single guy hanging out with my children."
