Amanda Bynes

So I read her conservatorship is ending?
What's everyone's opinions?
I can't imagine she has much money left at this point?

I was briefly scrolling through Twitter and saw so many people celebrating that she’s filed to end her conservatorship and comparing her to Britney. It was 2 completely different circumstances, Amanda really needed the help and says so herself.

Yeah they're completely different situations. Britney (whether she wanted to or not) has been working and earning money throughout the conservatorship. Whereas Amanda hasn't been physically able to work since 2010 and she relapsed not long ago.
I'm not sure if I trust her parents though, but at this point they're the only ones who know what's really going on with her ☹️

Lol because lighting two - now 4? Places on fire is a completely normal thing to do.
Shaving your head because you're going to be drug tested? Yup completely normal!
Posting about when your sister was underage and you wanted to slap her? Wow, so normal!

Haha I don’t think any of that is “normal” and the circumstances leading up the conservetorships were pretty similar.

However it’s what’s happened during the course of those conservatorships that is where I think they differ. Britney was paraded around like a show pony by the very people who were supposed to be taking care of her. In my opinion they took advantage of the power that they held.

Granted I don’t know as much about Amanda’s situation but she seems to have relatively kept out of the spotlight.
 
We obviously don’t know the ins and outs of her case but it does seem very different from Britney’s. For a start she is not working anymore, both her parents had the conservatorship and fully support the ending of it as they feel she is ready. They both seem like excellent parents who only want the best for her, and although they would have had control over her affairs she did seem to have a lot more freedom than Britney, for example she got engaged. Britney would never have been allowed to do that.
I hope things go well for her, as she was very unwell, as well as her addiction issues and this is a good example of how these things should be used.

You’ve articulated everything I think so well here!

I really wish Amanda well now that her conservatorship has come to an end. I just hope that she has people around her to support and help her, and who have her best interests at heart.

Unfortunately if you do a deep dive into her parents, I'm not sure they had her best interests at heart. She was put into very worrying situations with certain Nickelodeon producers when she was very young. Her parents were also very happy to see her exploited by Hollywood and would have definitely been the architects for her breakdown. There are many awful rumours of abuse as well. I hope she's able to overcome her demons and keep healthy from now on.
 
Omg what has happened to Amanda Bynes?? I remember The Amanda Show and She's The Man. She was a very talented young actress. It's amazing how much people change. But reading this thread, it looks like she went through a hell of a lot for her to be like this now and I feel awfully sorry for her. Also, what's with the tattoo on her face? Oh God no 😭😭

She’s The Man is still one of my favourite films to this day
