'The truth will set you free': Amanda Bynes returns to Twitter after five-month hiatus and reveals plans to study psychology
InTouch magazine about getting engaged.
'Don't believe anything the tabloids are saying about me,' she tweeted. 'They dislike me for some odd reason & they continue to insult me everyday.'
She continued: 'Treat others how you want to be treated. The truth will set you free.'
Amanda, 28, recently sparked concern once again over her mental health after being arrested for suspicion of DUI just a little over a week ago in Los Angeles.
Amanda revealed she would be 'transferring to NYU or Columbia from FIDM to study psychology' adding: 'so you'll see me in New York if you live here but I HATE stalkers!'.
Her return to Twitter follows reports from TMZ that the star has now cut her parents out of her life again.
The actress, who was arrested for driving under the influence last month, moved out of Rick and Lynn Bynes' home in Thousands Oaks, California as soon as her conservatorship ended at the beginning of September and has allegedly stopped taking her anti-psychotic medication for Schizophrenia and bipolarity.
Rick told TMZ that he and his wife, who was temporarily placed in control of Amanda's welfare after she entered rehab last year following months of erratic behaviour, only learned about their daughter's latest arrest through the media and insists they didn't pay her $15,000 bail.
When asked about Amanda, he repeatedly said: 'We don't know.'
Yesterday, InTouch magazine published an interview with Amanda, quoting her as saying she now plans to get engaged to a man named Caleb.
New friends? Bynes was spotted on Monday spending time with a group of young men in New York
Change up: The ring that was on her wedding finger last week was now on the other hand
Speaking to InTouch magazine, she reportedly said: 'I am very needy for friendship and I hate men. I want to f*** them, but I can now say I'm engaged, I want to be married and I want to be away from people.'
Amanda has given no more details on her boyfriend, other than his first name Caleb, and that he resides in Costa Mesa, California, and works in a 'bait shop'.
The actress is keen to settle down in New York after her nuptials because she can ride her bike and walk the streets rather than have to drive her car, like she has to do in California.

History: Amanda, who was placed under psychiatric hold last year after a series of bizarre incidents
Her fiance: Amanda has given no more details on her boyfriend, other than his first name Caleb, and that he resides in Costa Mesa, California, and works in a 'bait shop'
She said: 'I really do not enjoy driving. I don't like the way I look in a car. The lighting is very bad.'
Amanda, who was placed under psychiatric hold last year after a series of bizarre incidents, hopes she and her fiancé, who lives in Costa Mesa, California, will have lots of baby boys after they exchange their vows.
Centre of attention: Bynes was surrounded as she re-applied her make-up under the shade of a sausage stand
Getting it just right: The former actress used her phone to apply some lip paint
She said: 'I want boys, for sure. However many I can pop out. I don't want a gorgeous girl around. Then I [would] feel way jealous. Ew.'
Amanda is believed to have taken a turn for the worse after she moved out of her parents Rick and Lynn Bynes' home in Thousands Oaks, California, as soon as her conservatorship ended earlier this month.
She has also allegedly stopped taking her anti-psychotic medication for Schizophrenia and bipolarity.
The Easy A actress was pulled over in the San Fernando Valley neighborhood of Los Angeles on Sunday at 4 am and taken into custody, the California Highway Patrol confirmed with MailOnlinehttp://www.tmz.com/2014/09/29/amanda-bynes-arrested-in-california/.
She was cited for being under the influence of a controlled substance while driving her Mercedes-Benz. The 28-year-old star was released at 12 noon that same day on $15,000 bail.
The former child star is set to appear in court on October 23 in Van Nuys.
For the past year Lynn and Rick Bynes have been taking care of their troubled daughter by opening the doors of their Thousand Oaks, California home and overseeing her medication after the star experienced a string of run-ins with the law.
But on Monday the couple confessed to X17Online they lost track of where the actress was living after she was released from her conservatorship earlier this month.
'We don't know,' a gaunt-looking Rick told the site, also noting he learned of her second DUI arrest on Sunday from the media. It was also revealed the What A Girl Wants star did not ask her parents for her $15,000 bail.

I hope her siblings will fly out to NY and try helping her
If it were another celebrity I would agree, but considering what happened last time it totally sounds like something she would say.
I don't think there is a fiancé, I think she made him up or sees him as part of her delusions...

This is so sad!
WTH are her parents thinking? That girl needs help and meds. Was there an event or some trauma that caused this?

I still think her parents have their heads in the sand...but I really feel for them as well. I saw a heartbreaking story (on 60 Minutes) regarding the lack of help and support for families with children (young and adult) with serious psychological disorders. It's an absolute nightmare. One man was attacked by his delusional son, who then killed himself. These people can't get their children into hospitals, and even if they do, they can't keep them in there.
I count my blessings daily...

I'm probably the only one here who feels at least a tiny bit sympathetic to her parents. Yes, they appear to be severely in denial about their daughter's mental state, but I get the impression they are at wit's end with her. Amanda is incredibly unpredictable and she must be difficult to deal with on a day-to-day basis, even back when she was on meds and had improved.
She left their home and went across the country the moment their conservatorship ended so she must not have been happy in their care. She has free-will and cannot be forced into treatment until she does something that gets her in trouble with the law. It looks like that could happen at any time.
ETA: Bisbee, I was typing when your post came up. I agree with you.

I saw that piece on 60 Minutes, and what's stuck out for me is that a very large % of prisoners in our jails are there because of mental health issues. If whatever their health issue was ( bi-polar, schizophrenic, etc ) taken care of, they would not have landed in jail.
Also there was a fellow who I believe was bi-polar. He hated the way the meds made him feel, but he also hated being bi-polar, so he took the drugs. And that sadly is the biggest problem with mental illness. The people who really need the meds hate the way they make them feel, so they stop.

No one knows anything about Amanda's parents. We don't know anything about their relationship with Amanda. There's a reason they were estranged for so many years. For all we know, Amanda cut them out of her life when she turned 18. She may have made it clear that she didn't want -- or need -- their help. We don't know. We don't know anything about her parents - are they devout Christians? Do they have certain beliefs about medicine and/or religion? We don't know - why? Because we don't know them. We don't know Amanda. We don't know the situation and how long they're been "dealing" with this. We only know what TMZ and the Daily Mail chooses to tell us.
Amanda's parents aren't celebrities. They're not granting interviews sharing their story. They're not speaking publicly about Amanda. We're also not hearing from Amanda - and haven't for a very long time. That In Touch article could very well be all made up. Who's gonna believe Amanda if she says she didn't say those things? People will read that and say, "I could see Amanda saying that" or "Maybe that's what she believes". Is she really going to sue In Touch for liable? The tabloids can pretty much say whatever they want about her. Its disgusting really, how low the tabloids will sink for $$
I think its pretty cruel to point fingers in situations like these when no one has any intimate knowledge of the situation. IMO, Amanda didn't look very happy when she was released from the hospital into her mothers care. She looked empty and robotic. For all we know, she made life he!! for her parents. She may have mde it clear that she doesn't want or need their help. This could be killing her parents on the inside. We don't know.
This isn't a Kardashian who's looking for attention anyway she can get it. This is what appears to be a very sick woman and her mother isn't some Kris Kardashian or Dina Lohan. I'm sure they're carrying enough of a burden and are in more than enough pain - to point fingers and place the bulk of the blame on them is cruel and unfair. I'd love to see some of this disappointment and disgust aimed the the media who continue to follow Amanda around daily and take her picture and write lengthy articles about her, and profit from her illness. They're the ones that people should be ashamed of. They're the ones people should be sickened by. Her parents aren't celebrities or public figures. They didn't open their lives up for judgment. They just happen to be the parents of an ADULT CHILD who appears mentally ill. Unless anyone's walked in their shoes, been where they're at, and done so much "better" than they're doing, I don't think its anyone's place to cast judgment.
