Amanda Bynes has been withdrawn from the spotlight for several years due to the serious psychiatric problems she has been dealing with.
However, she maintains an Instagram profile to which she returned a few weeks ago, with her appearance nothing like the smiling girl loved from the Nickelodeon series.
Images of her posts have started making the rounds on the internet, with the suffering she has endured from her hospitalizations and mental health crises etched on her face. The once blonde and beautiful star of popular youth series such as ‘All That’ and ‘The Amanda Show’ is not as she was before.

Via TikTok, one of her fans posted a screenshot of Bynes’ appearance on Instagram and added older photos to emphasize, what many consider to be a “disturbing” – to many – change in her image.
“Honestly, what has happened to her?” one young woman asked in a comment under the video. Others added: “I had to look at her 2012 photos to know who she is” and most, aware of the difficulties she has experienced from a young age with her mental health, addressed her, commenting, among other things, “Hang in there, don’t give up. We love you”.
