Amanda Bynes Twitter Hacked: Actress Still Receiving Treatment

Amanda Bynes is almost as famous for her outlandish tweets as she is for her behavior and acting. However, the latest tweet from the former actress' account was fake, her lawyer revealed.

"I love Drake," the fake-Bynes tweeted yesterday, setting off a frenzy of speculation that she was up to her old antics and not receiving the psychological help ordered by the court.

Bynes was known to have tweeted the rapper extensively before being held on a 5150 psychiatric charge that was extended indefinitely. The judge granted an extension to the facility and Bynes was moved to UCLA Medical Center for further evaluation and treatment.

"Amanda's Twitter account has been hacked," lawyer Tamar Arminak told Radar Online. "She is at the UCLA Medical Center with no access to phones or computers."

It's unknown what Bynes is being treated for, but doctors said she would benefit from at least one year's worth of treatment when they were in court on August 29, only two weeks after Bynes was taken into custody for nearly lighting herself, and her dog, on fire.

"Her diagnosis is complex, and the appropriate drug cocktail to treat her hasn't been achieved. Lynn [her mother] needs to be granted permanent conservatorship because Amanda wouldn't agree to continue with treatment," an inside source told Radar.

Bynes' mother was granted temporary conservatorship over her daughter and the $3.5 million estate she has amassed. Another hearing at the end of this month will decide whether that conservatorship is permanent.

"She has her good days and bad days, and the goal is obviously to get her therapeutic and stable before being released," the insider noted. "Given time and the correct treatment and medicine, Amanda could and should absolutely be able to live with it and be a productive member of society. In fact, she won't likely suffer from symptoms of it [psychiatric illness] if she stays on her medication."
