Amanda Bynes Placed On 5150 Psychiatric Hold - Hospitalized for 72 Hours

It’s obvious Amanda Bynes has gone crazy.  Not even her trips to rehab have helped, but once again she’s been put in a mental hospital on a 5150 psychiatric hold.  Amanda Bynes arrived in L.A. and went to a hospital outside L.A. The doctors placed her on an involuntary 5150 psychiatric hold.

TMZ says they were told Amanda thought a car service was taking her to The London Hotel where her parents and their attorney were going to meet with her.  Her Mom and Dad made arrangements with the car service to take her to a Pasadena hospital instead. Their lawyer, Tamar Arminak, was there waiting with doctors.  Amanda will be held for 72 hours, but her hold can be extended to 14 days.

The past few weeks Amanda Bynes has been in the media for shop lifting, driving under the influence, and accusing her father of molestation.

Reports confirmed the actress was arrested at 3 a.m. Sunday September 28, by the California Highway Patrol after she failed to stop at a red light on Van Nuys Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. After she was unable to perform the sobriety tests, she was taken to the California Highway Patrol West Valley office. After a drug evaluation it was confirmed she was under the influence. She was booked but was released the same day on a $15,000 bail

Amanda was caught trying to shoplift from Barneys security caught her before she leave the store with their merchandise.  She claims she took the $200 hat to hide her from paparazzi.  That’s no excuse for not paying…

Today she accused her dad of physically and sexually abusing her, but later took it back tweeting, “My dad never did any of those things The microchip in my brain made me say those things but he’s the one that ordered them to microchip me. “

Amanda’s brother and sister also had something to say about her wild accusations stating, “We are disturbed beyond words that Amanda would come up with such a fabrication as a way to avoid getting much needed help or treatment.”

This isn’t the first time she has accused her dad of abusing her.  In December 2013 she posted a series of tweets that have since been deleted, about how he abused her as a child and asked if she wanted to have sex with him.

This time I really hope Amanda gets the help she needs.
