Sounds like she's finally getting the help she needs!

Amanda Bynes has been at a Pasadena treatment facility for last seventeen days after being involuntarily committed, and her doctors just got an order from a judge that allows them to hold her under their care for another month, TMZ reports. The troubled actress was originally placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold on Oct. 10 after displaying increasingly erratic behavior and accusing her father Rick of sexually abusing her on Twitter. Medical professionals at the facility have explained to the court that the starlet is "very ill" and "in no shape to take care of herself".

Her parents Rick and Lynn also quietly went to a judge and were granted a conservatorship over their daughter, after they detailed how the former Nickelodeon star was spending "alarming amounts" of money purchasing jewelry for strangers. Her parents are concerned at the rate in which she's blowing through her savings. The 28-year-old has a net worth of $5.7 million, but her only current income comes from a rental property that yielded $144K last year.

Mental illness needs to be taken seriously, and it seems family and medical professionals are doing everything in their power to save Amanda.
