Amanda Bynes to be released from rehab

Actress Amanda Bynes is expected to be released from rehab before Christmas after making remarkable improvements in her treatment.
The troubled actress has been in care since being placed under an involuntary psychiatric hold in July.
According to TMZ Online, Bynes has responded well to the medication and counselling she has been provided at The Canyon rehab facility in Malibu, California, where she moved to in September after transferring from the UCLA
The 27-year-old actress is expected to be released into the care of her mother, Lynn, who will supervise her at their family home as she readjusts to the world.

"Aside from the fact that the medicines and therapy appear to be working, doctors are concerned that Amanda is going stir crazy. She's not allowed to go outside because paparazzi are hanging out at the facility and the staff is worried if Amanda is around other patients and pictures are taken, it will compromise the others," a source said.
Bynes was allegedly diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder upon being hospitalised in July following a bizarre incident in which she set fire to a neighbour's driveway in Thousand Oaks, Los Angeles, and accidentally doused herself and her pet pooch in gasoline.
