Charlie Sheen famously said he's not bipolar, he's "bi-winning." But Friday in Toronto on a Violent Torpedo of Truth tour stop, he organized a bipolar awareness walk, ABC News reports.

Sheen asked supporters to meet him at the Ritz at 6 p.m. to walk to Massey Hall where he performed that evening. "Taking donations tonight for O.B.A.D. THE ORGANIZATION FOR BIPOLAR AFFECTIVE DISORDERS through CanadaHelps.org I'm matching all Donations!!" Sheen tweeted.

"I really don't know what to think about it," Kaj Korvela, executive director of OBAD, said in a phone interview with ABCNews.com. "The logistics of doing walks and events usually entails blocking streets off and phoning the police department. I'm as flummoxed and confused as anybody else."

No word on whether Sheen's impromptu walk had anything to do with Catherine Zeta Jones' revelation that she recently sought treatment for the illness.
