Amanda Bynes placed on psychiatric hold after roaming streets naked

Amanda Bynes was placed on a psychiatric hold when she called 911 after finding herself walking around the streets naked.

An eyewitness told TMZ the former “Amanda Show” star flagged down a car early Sunday without any clothes on her person and told the driver she was coming down from a psychiatric episode.

Bynes, 36, was taken to a nearby police station where a mental health expert determined she needed to be placed on a 5150 hold and remains in a facility’s care.

Typically, 5150 hold lasts 72 hours but can be extended based on a patient’s need.

Bynes’ attorney didn’t immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.

The “All That” alum’s psychiatric episode happened nearly one year to the day after she was freed from her conservatorship after almost nine years.

Bynes herself spoke out on March 7 thanking fans for their “love and support” in a brief Instagram video recorded in anticipation of her hearing that ultimately decided she no longer “needed” the legal setup.

Bynes’ parents, Rick and Lynn Bynes, supported her push for freedom. Lynn served as Amanda’s conservator, while Rick was considered an interested party in the case.

After the conservatorship’s termination, Bynes’ attorney told People magazine that she was “doing very well” and looking forward to moving in with her fiancé, Paul Michael.

However, she and Michael ended their engagement in July 2022, just months after she publicly accused him of watching “mom-and-son porn” and using crack cocaine.

She later clarified that she caught him watching “MILF” porn instead of “mom-and-son” but insisted he relapsed in his drug use despite his revealing a clean test.

Despite the breakup, Bynes appeared to be doing well as she decided to enroll in cosmetology school to become a manicurist.
