Amanda Bynes Back In Rehab After "Relapse"

Poor girl! Amanda Bynes has had a tough time of it ...
The actress entered a mental health facility in 2014 after a very public breakdown involving bizarre social media posts that drew attention to her issues. When she completed treatment she was released to her parents' care and her mother was Bynes' legal conservator over Amanda's "person."
But it seems Bynes' drug use may have caught up with her again. She has admitted smoking pot in her early teens, which progressed to using ecstasy and molly, and to abusing Adderall. She ended up dropping out of the movie Hall Pass because she was too "scatterbrained" to finish filming but it was the Emma Stone film Easy A that made Bynes stop acting all together. She explained: "I literally couldn’t stand my appearance in that movie and I didn’t like my performance. I was absolutely convinced I needed to stop acting after seeing it,†Bynes explained. “I was high on marijuana when I saw that but for some reason, it really started to affect me. I don’t know if it was a drug-induced psychosis or what, but it affected my brain in a different way than it affects other people. It absolutely changed my perception of things."
Is that bad brain chemistry coming back to haunt her? Or perhaps she's using again ... either way, Bynes is clearly struggling and we wish her the best in getting the treatment she needs!
