• Return The incredible resurgence of Amanda Bynes, after drugs and eating problems

Actress Amanda Bynes (36) has been rushed to a psychiatric facility after being found wandering alone, naked and disoriented through one of the most conflictive areas of Los Angeles, in the United States. It seems that the reason why the interpreter has lived this complicated episode would have to do with a psychotic break.

As reported by TMZ, it was Bynes herself who beckoned a car to stop and the driver to help her because she, she told him, was finishing a "psychotic episode." It was also Amanda herself who called the emergency services for help.

Once the police arrived at the scene, the protagonist of Ella es el chico was transferred to the police station, where a team specialized in mental health determined that she should be placed in a "psychological detention 5150".

A protocol that allows a person suffering from a mental health crisis to be involuntarily detained for 72 hours in a psychiatric hospital to see if they pose a danger to others.

TMZ has indicated that the actress was totally unharmed, which surprised locals and strangers, since she was found in a somewhat dangerous place. For now, Amanda Bynes is hospitalized and, everything, indicates that it will continue like this for, at least, the next few days.

It's not the first time the actress has received psychiatric help. The mental health problems he suffers from (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder) meant that, in 2013, his mother had to assume his guardianship. In that year she also suffered a psychotic break and was arrested and hospitalized when she tried to burn down the house of an elderly woman, a neighbor of her parents.

Currently, the actress seemed to be more focused on herself and away from the media spotlight, in love with her partner, Paul Michael. However, this unexpected turn of events has caused it to become international news again.
