Amanda Bynes to possibly stay longer at the psychiatric care
Sources close to Amanda Bynes revealed to TMZ that they are still trying to figure out whether the Easy A actress has been living on the streets for several days.
If you didn’t know, Bynes was placed on a 72-hour-long psychiatric hold for roaming the streets of Los Angeles naked.
Meanwhile, reports claim that the former Nickelodeon star flagged down a car while she was nude on Sunday.
Additionally, an eyewitness claimed that Bynes told the driver that she was coming down from a psychotic episode.

Bynes then called 911 on herself and was immediately rushed to a local police station. Furthermore, a mental health expert determined that Bynes needs to be taken to a mental health facility for treatment.
Meanwhile, the incident came nearly a year after the She’s the Man star was freed from her conservatorship. It lasted for almost nine years.
A judge at that time ruled out that Bynes and her estate ‘no longer required’ the legal guardianship of the actress’s parents Rick and Lynn Bynes.
Besides that, David Esquibias, Bynes’s attorney claimed that she was ‘doing very well.’
Furthermore, Bynes and her former fiance, Paul Michael, called it quits in July 2022 but they are continuing to remain as close friends. The duo was last captured together in December 2022 seemingly running errands in LA.

Ugh. Why do we have to pull out our phones and record everything?! Have we become so self obsessed that we can no longer have casual meetups and strolls without explaining it to the internet? The LAST thing she probably needed was this. A friend she was not.
