Amanda Bynes to remain on Psych hold

Nickelodeon star Amanda Bynes has had a real hard time managing her ongoing struggle with mental health.

Back in March Amanda was picked up by LAPD when she was seen wandering Los Angeles streets, completely undressed, waving down passing cars. Clearly in need of help.

Since that time, Bynes has been on what is called a 5150 Psych hold, which allows authorities to hold a person they feel is a danger to themselves or others due to an altered mental state.

Now comes word she will remain on a 5150 hold for at least three more months.

The Big Fat Liar star was placed under a temporary conservatorship in August 2013 amid a series of mental health and substance abuse issues. Her mother, Lynn Bynes, was in charge of Amanda’s health care and personal affairs.

In 2022, Amanda filed a petition to terminate her conservatorship and filed a mental capacity declaration stating that she is mentally fit to look after herself and her affairs.
