Amanda Bynes On Bipolar Diagnosis — ‘I’m Fine’ [Update]


Amanda Bynes is “fine,” folks! Despite the troubled star’s early release from her psychiatric hold, Bynes claims she’s just fine. She decided to hit up her Twitter account to declare her sanity a few hours ago.

It’s typical of celebrities to cut the middle man out by using Twitter but Amanda has used her account to damage her parents’ reputation and often tweets odd things that suggest her erratic behavior is not just a pattern. Basically, if you haven’t been keeping up with the star then you’ve missed some pretty deranged tweets.

After speculation arose that her 2013 hospitalization lead to the star being diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, the former actress decided to clear the air about her medical diagnosis for all of her concerned followers.

“I was diagnosed bi – polar and manic depressive so I’m on medication and I’m seeing my psychologist and psychiatrist weekly so I’m fine :D.”

Although she has stated that she’s fine, it doesn’t look like she’s very stable. Currently she’s fighting for her independence despite her parents, Rick Bynes and Lynn Organ, gaining conservatorship until 2015. She tweeted several thoughts about what she thinks she needs in her life, and what her conservatorship entails.

“I need to get an apartment and my parents won’t give me access to any of my funds.”

“I’m not living with my parents. I’m not legally obligated to. My lawyer said if I comply with the courts and take my meds and see my psychologist and psychiatrist weekly then I will get unconserved. Thank GOD.”

Then again, it’s hard to believe what’s true when it comes to Amanda’s tweets. Before her psych hold, the Hairspray star accused her father of sexually abusing her on Twitter.

At the time, her mother refuted the claims with a statement to E!.

“Rick has been the best father and husband a family can ask for. He has never abused Amanda or our other children physically or sexually. These accusations are absolutely horrible and could not be further from the truth! These allegations stem from Amanda’s mental state at the moment. They have no basis in reality. It saddens me beyond belief that my husband’s character could be slandered in such a way.”

Afterward Bynes said her accusations weren’t true and that a chip in her head was making her say those things.

Hours after Bynes decided to share her diagnosis, she is apparently blaming the tweet on a friend that had access to her phone.

She followed that up with a series of erratic tweets:
