Actress Amanda Bynes (37), who was a Hollywood star, was forcibly admitted to a psychiatric hospital after wandering naked on the streets of Los Angeles, California.
According to TMZ and Daily Mail on the 23rd, Amanda has been living a homeless life on the streets for the past few days and has shown eccentricities such as grabbing cars passing by.
Finally, on the 19th, in the early morning of the weekend, numerous people were spotted wandering around the city naked.
Witnesses said Amanda stopped a passing car naked and said, “I came out of the mental hospital episode,” and called 911 herself to report it.
Amanda was detained at a nearby police station the same day and was transferred to a psychiatric unit. Doctors issued code 5150 action after consultation. Code 5150 is a measure that allows you to be confined to a hospital for more than 72 hours in a situation where you can harm yourself and others.
Later, Amanda’s side said, “The symptoms have improved a lot, but I plan to stay in the hospital for another week to recover enough to be discharged.”
Neighbors, including friends, said Amanda spent several days living on the streets before being taken into custody, and even hijacked a stranger’s car from Hollywood to Beverly Hills.
At the time, an unfamiliar driver gave Amanda a ride to Beverly Hills, but Amanda insisted on returning to Hollywood.
It was also found that he obtained money from passing citizens. One fan of hers, who posted a video of her verification on her TikTok, wrote, “She is happy to help her. She was nice, and I paid a little money to talk to her.”
Amanda, who made her film debut at the age of 7, enjoyed popularity as a ‘teenage star’ through films such as ‘Big Fat Liar’, ‘What a Girl Wants’ (2003) and ‘She’s the Man’ (2007) in 2002.
However, due to frequent eccentricities under the influence of bipolar disorder and alcoholism, he was called Hollywood’s ‘problem child’ for a while. Incidents such as breaking into her home and setting fire to her garage driveway traumatized her. She eventually came to live under the care of her parents in 2013 when she was diagnosed with schizophrenia.
