Amanda Bynes back in rehab

Former child star Amanda Bynes has returned to a rehabilitation facility to undergo further treatment for “stress and anxiety,” according to her lawyer.

The Hairspray actress previously spent two months in a mental health centre, but returned to Instagram in May to reveal she was “back on track and doing well” as she planned to focus on her fashion design studies.

However, the 34-year-old’s lawyer, David Esquibias, reveals Bynes is seeking additional medical attention to help her cope with ongoing personal struggles.

“Amanda’s at a treatment centre for stress and anxiety,” Esquibias confirms to Us Weekly magazine. “She’s not there for drug or alcohol issues.”

Bynes has been in and out of treatment facilities since 2013, when she was hospitalised on a 72-hour mental-health evaluation hold following her increasingly erratic behaviour. She was subsequently placed under a conservatorship run by her mother.
