AMANDA BYNES Denied Freedom, Goes Back to PSYCH WARD

Amanda Bynes was denied in her attempt to leave the psychiatric hospital where she's been on a 5150 involuntary hold at for over a week. John Basedow (@JohnBasedow) reports a judge sided with Amanda's doctors, who say the troubled starlet needs to remain hospitalized for the time being. Amanda has been reportedly doing very well on a cocktail of medication that some say could treat schizophrenia; however, the wig-wearing former Nickelodeon personality doesn't believe she's mentally ill.
