Bynes Continues Psychiatric Treatment

As I have previously discussed, Nickelodean celebrity Amanda Byneshas spent $1.2 million dollars of her $4 million dollars in life savings. Herparents are claiming that the money was spent in a very short time span. As aresult of what her parents believe is excessive spending and misconduct, Rickand Lynn Bynes petitioned the court for a strict, court orderedconservatorship. The judge had delayed the outcome because he wants to speakwith Amanda when she is removed from her psychiatric hold. 

It seems like Bynes may be suffering fromschizophrenia and will continue to be in the hospital for additional time torespond to her new medications. Reports indicate her mom has been granted atemporary conservatorship. This means that Lynn can determine where Amandalives as well as where she receives medical attention. Bynes has moved toHillmont Psychiatric Center in Los Angeles. Since her psychiatric hold, Byneshas stayed away from all social media.
