October 3, 2013

It has been a turbulent couple of months for Amanda Bynes. She went from being one of the “young Hollywood” girls who were role models to being on the crazed side. Bynes has been receiving treatment for some mental issues since July 22, and now her mom Lynn is speaking out. In a statement to People on October 2, Lynn Bynes thanked everyone for the support of Amanda and asked for privacy while she deals with this trying time in life.

Amanda Bynes was one of the girls many aspired to be like. She seemed to keep everything together, until this year. Bynes went on Twitter rampages, did crazy things including lighting things on fire, and refused treatment because she claimed she wasn’t sick. Several of her friends spoke out on Twitter urging her to get help and in turn, she made fun of them or was blatantly rude.

Fans of Amanda Bynes are happy that her mother finally released a statement. There have been reports that she is dealing with bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia, but Bynes’ mother did not confirm a diagnosis. She wants to respect Amanda’s privacy and hopes the media will do the same. Bynes will remain in a treatment facility for quite a while to ensure that her issues are being controlled and she is healing.
