I was watching What a Girl Wants last night and after all this stuff came out I look at these movies with different eyes. When Amanda’s character arrives in the Uk she gets off a double decker red bus and the slogan very predominantly displayed on the bus is “You never forget your first time - Virgin Airlines”…if you watch it it’s very clear that was put there on purpose. You have to wonder. I don’t know who was behind that movie but I’m sure there are many creeps who have not been uncovered

I work in Academia so basically everyone has a disorder or a neuroatypicality (is that a word? It is now) and I've worked with a lot of women who had Borderline Personalty Disorder because of intense childhood abuse or pressure or stress. I remember Amanda Bynes headlines but iirc I did whatever I could to ignore them (I'm on the side of Chris Crockers). But looking now as someone with more experience and still also knowing can't none of us actually know...- BPD is probably just the tip of the iceberg. And a *shitload* of adults should be held viciously responsible. She was under absurd stress to do something she actually liked and was good at, put on an insane time table, and had entirely too many weird adults telling her inappropriate shit as well as... probably not great parent relationship, oh yah and her boss was feeding her pills like it's 1939 and the fucking set of The Wizard of Oz. The racist shit and the being horrible to other women based on perceived attractiveness is definitely "Yep these are your worst attributes coming up in troublesome times. I wonder... perhaps working on a set that explicitly and implicitly favored white kids over any others Then time moves on as you grow up and suddenly being super skinny and cute in the generic Disney/Nick casting preference doesn't exactly make you Queen of the Hotties when you graduate into the real world and the guys you want to...murder your pussy so to speak, are into thicker gals or someone outside the... generic predominately white kiddie show aesthetic. It's not excusable but I can at least see the sources pretty easily.

Saying her face needs to be beautiful, not wanting pictures unless they are perfect, preoccupied with her looks in a way that it hinders her livelihood: All huge symptoms. And it makes me sad she can’t see herself for the beauty she is, but BDD is deceptive and cruel and I wish it on no one.

The CSA in conjunction with everything else makes complete sense about her behavior. As a CSA survivor, I know the feeling of feeling ugly. Not just ugly on the outside but inside. I hated myself. I'm 40 and still carry it deep in my core. Also trauma can cause psychosis. My son had this experience and he was having delusions that would have made anyone think he was schizophrenic. She seems like she is in so much pain. In her recent videos on social media, she sounds either high or completely dissociated. Dissociation is another fun outcome of CSA. I bet the documentary is making unwanted memories come back and giving her flashbacks. I hate when a beautiful light in someone is taken and replaced by darkness. She was such a spirited girl. It's incredibly sad to see.

That's freaking depressing. Her parents dumped her in the suspool when she was only ten, like "yeah, learn to swim now" without even looking back. The attention of being famous at such a young age alone is enough to break a mind. Adding to that the absolute garbage of people she was forced to be around... poor child, she didn't stand a chance. But the first offenders are her parents. They did nothing to shield her, to help her get an healthy childhood. That's absolutely horrible... This industry EXPLOITS children, and sucks them dry, and then dumped them like garbage. When you think about child exploitation, you think sweat-shops in Bangladesh, prostitution in Thailand, etc. Because its "entertainment", the industry gets a pass on child exploitation. That's soooooo f'd up. It needs to stop.

She was acting out in a way that's very familiar. I believe that Amanda may have been the victim of childhood sexual trauma. I'm not saying her father is guilty. She was acting from age 9?..and we see her in a hot tub with Shnieder right here. Dan Schnieder was far from being the only scumbag around her, and she was lovely, and apparently, often unsupervised. For many of us the only way of reacting to childhood sexual trauma was "acting out", insecurity, lying, stealing, sexual precocity, even bullying, and then drugs and alcohol. And it destroys lives.

I didn't recognize her at first and when I realized I was honestly taken aback but hey we were all in rehab and didn't really care. I really hope she is doing okay and that she has her peace.

I developed an ED as a teen reading magazines calling healthy women fat and recommending week-long lemon juice ‘cleanses’. So I can’t even imagine what it was like to these poor women who were in the public eye at that time.

As an adult diagnosed with ADHD later i life (I was 36), I can say that it all depends on the doctor. My diagnosis took some time - first, after my initial diagnosis, I was referred to an adult ADHD specialst and then I underwent several test. My parents were also intrerviewed about my childhood. So no - normally it takes some effeort to become diagnosed and receive a prescripion. But you can always find a medical practitioner who is not that honest.

I wasn’t a child when I faced sexual abuse, grooming and SA, but as an adult survivor, I faced fear of retaliation at the hands of a highly-regarded monster who had the power to make or break my career (Army superior). When I finally broke and came forward, I knew I was burning every bridge and destroying my career to continue living and ensuring he never did it to anyone again. But I remember, as I was gradually breaking down in front of my peers, superiors and Soldiers (they ALL noticed; their investigation interviews made it very clear that they thought I was “unhinged,” or “emotional”), that they didn’t think ONCE to step in and see if something was going on. I feel so much for Bynes. We can only take so much before we snap, sometimes even before our own eyes, uncontrollably. I truly wish the best for her.

The only reason military leadership is putting on a front of caring is because they have faced significant attrition and retention issues, and even then, they don’t care that these issues presents a legitimate, terrifying national security threat; they care that they won’t get their first or next star because they look bad. We need an overhaul, not just for the sake of our Service Members, but for the sake of our country. I always try to remind myself that, of all the officers involved in my case, I was the only one who actually demonstrated the Army values from a genuine place. That’s the only thing that keeps me grounded.

She got dangerously slender and had to go on an appetite stimulant medication so she would eat, and is doing better now. So sure, for some ADHD people medication doesn't suppress the appetite. Some ADHD meds don't even have appetite suppression as a side effect! But for other ADHD people, meds do indeed suppress the appetite. Everyone is different. Don't generalize.

My daughter was Amanda's demographic/ age ( maybe a tad older than my daughter, but i digress). I watched Amanda grow up , on screen, from tv to movies. When she stated having issues, the media treated her terribly. It broke my heart. I knew something was not the typical "child star goes wild". It was apparent- something happened, and it was bad. 😢 I wish someone, ANYONE had listened to her... I am so sorry we didn't. She deserved better.. I hope, she knows - people finally are. I am sorry it took so long. Too damn long. Thank you, Swoop. 💜

Conservatoeships do exist for a reason and need to be a thing. There just needs to be appropriate oversight both while the conservativship is active, but also appropriate support and oversite when it ends. And yes, ending a conservativship should be the goal always. I'm also glad to hear she was able to call for help for herself. I could never make the call, but I did drive myself to ER a few times and it's a very difficult thing to do. To know that something in your mind is going wrong and you need help is a very hard thing to do.

No. Not if you're a normal ass human who isn't rich and in Hollywood. Especially not when you're trying to get diagnosed as an adult and it's even harder if you're a woman.

@@shibibi1 i'm so sorry! I hope you're able to find a dr that will listen. I was very fortunate and my parents took me to a specialty clinic at 17 for adhd testing and 10 years later I still get told by drs that I dont have it, despite the months of testing I went through 😤 I'm not sure what routes you've tried, but I highly suggest finding a psychologist that specializes in adhd or seeing if there are any adhd testing clinics near you. It's not the most accessible route (cost/can be hard to find places that accept most insurances) but it's something to look into 😄 best of luck to you

I thought you were going to add during the Twitter portion of what Amanda tweeted about her and Dan. During those rampages, she went on a whole thing about how a director got her pregnant at 13 and made her abort it, and went on another rampage about how they were hurting her. She never mentioned Dan, but we can pretty much put two and two together considering he was a director of The Amanda Show, she was practically living with him too, and that he was just blatantly adding these bits in that were highly inappropriate.

The thing that gets me about this situation and discussions about Quiet on Set is the fact a lot of people are taking away the lesson of "Nickelodeon is uniquely evil and wrong" when the reality is the entertainment industry is toxic and life ruining even more many adults and completely fucks up many childrens' lives. Nick is not the only place with child stars that have been ruined by the industry it's just the newest place a lot being discussed have come from. Dan Schneider is not unique in his disgusting behavior or abuse as a producer or director he just has the most publicity right now. This will continue to happen until the entertainment industry is completely overhauled and that will mean better protections, stronger unions, less time filming, protections for stunt doubles and staff, and likely fewer tv shows and movies we want to see getting made.

I adopted a black cat many years ago and the first thing that multiple friends said was along the lines of, "It's going to be so much harder to take photos of a black cat." No congratulations or anything even though one of the first things people know about me is my love for cats and these friends knew I had waited many years after my childhood cat passed away to finally be in a living situation where I could get my own cat again. Jokes on them though. I still take at least a few photos of my black kitty every day. He's too cute not to, plus his bleps are even more adorable since they stand out against his dark fur. :)

That's actually interesting. There is another little known child actor who experienced what Amanda is describing at 27:44. What made it worse for him was that the other teen actor who played his sister, didn't experience the normal type of puberty that one would think of when you think of a child doing it. He was short, had an acne breakout, and his voice repeatedly cracked. His acne was also the focus of many jokes on the show. But his on screen sister, blossomed. She became taller, had no acne breakouts, and became the penacle of beauty even on the show. That child actor actually did an interview and spoke about how much it sucked having to go through puberty beneath the watchful eye of millions while his on screen sister was seen as a bombshell. To be fair with her, in the very beginning, her character was a little dumb but as the years went by, the writers leaned heavily into that "dumb blonde joke" to the point where it was ridiculous. Like the saying looking up at the sky when it was raining and drowning levels of dumb. That male child actor was David Faustino, his on screen sister was Christina Applegate and the show was Married... With Children. Other child actors have spoken about going through puberty in front of an audience and I imagine it sucks. It sucks going through it without an audience.
