Amanda Bynes released from treatment facility

-

More news on the Amanda Bynes front.

The actress asked to be released from a psychiatric treatment facility on Thursday and the facility approved the release. Three days ago, a judge ordered that she needs to spend another month in treatment.

On Thursday, Bynes was seen on Sunset Strip wearing large sunglasses and a dark coat. She was seen walking Sunset Boulevard looking for a hotel to spend the night at. She was also seen eating dinner at a nearby diner.

My thoughts:
Here is what I don't get. Obviously something is bothering this poor girl. To say that nothing is wrong is just ludicrous to me. She needs a positive and stable influence in her life, and her parents obviously cannot give that to her.
I understand what she's going through because I also went through it. Before I got help for my issues, I was a mess. I was doing all kinds of strange shit. At the time, I didn't think anything was wrong. I was telling people to fuck off. Something changed and I became open to the help that was out there.

It can't be easy for her to be going through such a traumatic time with the paparazzi vultures following her every move.

Another thing that I don't get is that Amanda Bynes' mother was granted a temporary conservatorship over Amanda. The conservatorship only gives her mom control over her financial and medical needs, yet, it doesn't cover her psychiatric treatment. It seems like a pretty messed up system. Bynes isn't going to listen to her parents in this situation. She isn't going to accept the medical care that she needs. Why can't conservatorship cover psychiatric treatment?

Also, if Amanda Bynes is such a danger to property, herself, and other people, why didn't the courts force her to stay in treatment? If the facility had more time, they could have reached her. They could have had a breakthrough with her.

I hate to say this, but this isn't going to end well. Unless a positive influence enters Bynes' life, unless she accepts that something is wrong, this won't end well. I'd hate to see something bad happen to someone so young. She still has her entire life ahead of her. She can become a success story. Britney Spears had a major meltdown and she sought help. She's doing much better now.

Mental illness isn't a joke. It isn't something to be mocked or ridiculed. It is a serious disease. This is what happens when someone doesn't accept help and is being publicly mocked. It makes the sufferers much worse. What Amanda Bynes needs (and people like her need) is a positive support system. She needs someone she can open up to, so she can come to terms with what is bothering her.
It isn't easy. I deal with my disorder every day. I will deal with it for the rest of my life. You have to take things 'day by day', even 'minute by minute' if 'day by day' is too much to handle.

I hope Amanda Bynes reaches a breakthrough before it's too late. Like I said, she can rebound from this. She can prove the vultures wrong. I proved my vultures wrong, and it feels damn good! My recovery is a middle finger to all of those people who mocked me when I was younger.

If you are in a similar situation as Amanda Bynes, open yourself up to help. Talk to someone who is a positive influence. Not everyone is out to get you. Accept help, and prove the vultures in your life wrong.
If any of you need someone to talk to, someone who has been there, email me at shausil82@gmail.com.

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%. Most of the restaurants featured earlier in the series have since closed.
