Is the second time the charm for troubled actor Nick Stahl? The Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines star had been missing for over a month since abruptly checking out of a drug treatment center—his second instance this year of going completely AWOL. Happily, his wife Rose Stahl tweeted the good news that Nick has been found alive and well, and has agreed to start receiving help for his addiction. Although he isn't in a residential drug treatment facility, he's apparently attending daily AA meetings to address his alcoholism. And although he hasn't moved home, he's reportedly reconciled with his family and is in constant touch with them. Sources close to Nick Stahl say he is in "a good place" at the moment. When he resurfaced after his first disappearance in May, he went to rehab to address his substance abuse issues, but left treatment early, against doctors' advice. Rose decided to not involve the police again when he went missing for the second time and effectively ended the search. "I'm backing off," she said then. "He knows exactly where home is. It's the loving thing to do for him, myself and our daughter."
