Carlin says he recognized he was in trouble and he decided on his own to enter rehab.
Carlin told "Entertainment Tonight": "No one told me I needed this. I recognized the problem and took the step myself."
Carlin performs his stand-up comedy in Las Vegas showrooms and is currently the author of the best-selling Hyperion book "When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?." He says he's never been treated in a rehabilitation facility.
His acting credits include "With Six You Get Eggroll," "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey" and "Jersey Girl" with Ben Affleck.
